I found the place where the movti patterns were removed. This is a riscv-gcc
commit from Kito.

Remove 128 bit support, just let gcc handle it
I don't see a github pull request or issue for it, so I don't know why Kito
removed the support. This is a little too long ago to easily find info related
to the change. This is a gcc-6.1 source base. Unless perhaps Kito remembers
why he made the change, all I can do is readd the support and wait to see if
something else breaks. I do think that we should readd the movti support to
fix a couple of bugs. I suspect a code size or performance issue, but wrong
code and ICEs are worse problems than code size and performance.
