Fix the register and part of register we get the scalar from in
the various "multiply vector by scalar" ops (VMUL by scalar
and friends).

I do confirm that with this patch, I can see many improvements in my tests.

Thanks.

FWIW, on the two test cases that I have, this patch (together with
Christophe's) does not improve behaviour (see
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/702885).

Hrm. Can you attached the compiled ARM binaries to that
bug report, to save me the effort of digging out an armcc,
please?

thanks

Duh. I had missed the greater part of Christophe's patch (I am still
having trouble with my mail client; applying patches off the list is
manual for me).

With both patches applied, indeed the bug filed on launchpad seems
fixed. On my second test case, behaviour is also much improved. Thanks
much!
