I've been thinking a bit more about this and I am not convinced about
changing these retypes to asserts. My thinking is that these retypes are
only necessary to support the shuffling logic implemented here, so it is
kind of an internal helper more than a requirement on the input types.
In fact, we call this function with src and dst being the same in
various places because in the end we just want the exact same data only
that shuffled around in a specific way. If we force specific types on
the dst and src I think we are going to end up having to retype in the
calls we do to the shuffling functions only so we fit the requirement of
the assert and not really because that is what we want to do (from the
perspective of the caller).

FWIW, if someone called this with actual 32-bit data instead of 64-bit
data, that is going to break because the code will process more
components than what is available in the source or destination regions
and that would raise an assertion eventually because we produce reads or
writes that go beyond the VGRF space allocated for these registers. So
in the cases you mention I think we would be getting an assertion
anyway.
