Note your current pattern only handles VECTOR_CST because that is only
valid as an operand for the function call.
For a CONSTRUCTOR or a VEC_DUPLICATE, @0 will be a SSA_NAME as
CONSTRUCTOR/VEC_DUPLICATEs are only valid if alone in a stmt and
uniform_vector_p will return false for a SSA_NAME.

You could change the patch to be similar to what I originally did for
IFN_VEC_SHL_INSERT
(https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-patches/2024-July/658274.html);
though Richard had the same suggestion as I have above:
