 ; AVX-NEXT:    vinsertps {{.*#+}} xmm0 = xmm0[0,1],mem[0],xmm0[3]
-; AVX-NEXT:    vmovsd {{.*#+}} xmm1 = mem[0],zero
+; AVX-NEXT:    vmovups (%rsi), %xmm1
 ; AVX-NEXT:    vinsertps {{.*#+}} xmm1 = xmm1[0,1],mem[0],xmm1[3]
----------------
Even if we're allowed to do this, it doesn't seem wise; having zero in the high bits of the register is better than random junk.  Can we mark up the loads somehow?
