503.bwaves_r shows a case where the non-SLP optimization of performing the reduction adjustment with the initial value as part of the epilogue rather than including it as part of the initial vector value. It allows to break a critical dependence path. The following restores this ability for single-lane SLP.
On Zen2 this turns a 2.5% regression from GCC 14 into a 2.5% improvement. Bootstrapped and tested on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, pushed.
