Shouldn't it be used also for p{min,max}ud rather than just p{min,max}sd?
What about p{min,max}{s,u}{b,w,q}?  Some of those are already in SSE.

If the conversion of the chain fails, couldn't the STV pass split those
SImode etc. min/max patterns into code with branches, rather than turn it
into cmovs?
