In the v5 patch, I changed it to
cst = (*constfun) (constfundata, nullptr, offset, mode);
/* All CONST_VECTORs are legitimate if vec_duplicate
is supported. */
if (!((memsetp
&& VECTOR_MODE_P (mode)
&& GET_MODE_INNER (mode) == QImode
&& (optab_handler (vec_duplicate_optab, mode)
!= CODE_FOR_nothing))
|| targetm.legitimate_constant_p (mode, cst)))
return 0;
