+; FIXME: This horizontal reduction occurs because the cost model thinks it can
+; vectorize the loads here. However, because -riscv-v-slp-max-vf is set to 1 by
+; default, tryToVectorizeList fails and we end up with this very expensive
+; scalarized load.
+;
+; This is the code the cost model thinks it's going to generate, which you can
+; get by passing -riscv-v-slp-max-vf=0
