No, you want
if (! TYPE_OVERFLOW_WRAPS (TREE_TYPE (arg1)))
return false;
that will likely render the transform useless unless -fwrapv is given.
What we miss in the middle-end is a ABSU_EXPR that computes the
unsigned result of the absolute value (of the signed operand). That's
always well-defined. So you'd then lower to
y = { -2147483648, -2147483648, -2147483648, -2147483648 };
D.1234 = ABSU_EXPR <y>;
D.2579 = VIEW_CONVERT <D.1234>;
RTL expansion of ABSU_EXPR can re-use RTL abs since there's
nothing undefined on RTL.
