+/// ShuffleVectorSDNode - This SDNode is used to implement the code generator
+/// support for the llvm IR shufflevector instruction.  It combines elements
+/// from two input vectors into a new input vector, with the selection and
+/// ordering of elements determined by an array of integers, referred to as
+/// the shuffle mask.  For input vectors of width N, mask indices of 0..N-1
+/// refer to elements from the LHS input, and indices from N to 2N-1 the RHS.
+/// An index of -1 is treated as undef, such that the code generator may put
+/// any value in the corresponding element of the result.
