As mentioned in the PR and as
https://software.intel.com/sites/landingpage/IntrinsicsGuide/#text=_mask_popcnt_epi
also documents, _mm*_popcnt_epi* intrinsics are consistent with all other
unary AVX512* intrinsics regarding arguments, i.e. the
_mm*_whatever has just single argument (called a in the docs, and __A in the
GCC headers),
_mm*_mask_whatever has 3 arguments (called src, k, a in the docs and
_W, __U, __A in GCC headers) and
_mm*_maskz_whatever 2 arguments (called k, a in the docs and __U, __A in GCC
headers). Unfortunately, whomever implemented the _mm*_popcnt_epi*
intrinsics got it wrong for the _mm*_mask_popcnt_epi* ones, calling the
args __A, __U, __B and not passing them in the canonical order to the
builtins, making it API incompatible with ICC as well as clang (tested on
godbolts clang 7/8/9/trunk and ICC 19.0.{0,1}, older clang/ICC don't
understand those, so it isn't that it used to be broken even in other
compilers and got changed afterwards).
