I don't think that's quite true because computeMaxVF also handles the ScalarEpilogueStatus. For example, if tail-folding is required it invalidates interleave groups, or if the trip count is known to be a multiple of all VFs it decides not to tail-fold. I do think that perhaps the name `computeMaxVF` is misleading because it's doing more than just calculating the Max VF.
Alternatively, this logic could be moved into `LoopVectorizationPlanner::plan` where we call computeMaxVF.
