Thank you for those links, it was a good read.
Unfortunatly I don't think it is a good use case here. A decent part of 
the speedup I get is by using a dense hitmask: ie every bit count with 
no padding. Using the vshrn would have 4 bits of padding, and stripping 
them would be more expensive than using a regular reduce.
