In code review for D117104 two slightly weird checks were found
in DAGCombiner::reduceLoadWidth. They were typically checking
if BitsA was a mulitple of BitsB by looking at (BitsA & (BitsB - 1)),
but such a comparison actually only make sense if BitsB is a power
of two.
The checks were related to the code that attempted to shrink a load
based on the fact that the loaded value would be right shifted.
Afaict the legality of the value types is checked later (typically in
isLegalNarrowLdSt), so the existing checks were both overly
conservative as well as being wrong whenever ExtVTBits wasn't a
power of two. The latter was a situation triggered by a number of
lit tests so we could not just assert on ExtVTBIts being a power of
two).
When attempting to simply remove the checks I found some problems,
that seems to have been guarded by the checks (maybe just out of
luck). A typical example would be a pattern like this:
t1 = load i96* ptr
t2 = srl t1, 64
t3 = truncate t2 to i64
When DAGCombine is visiting the truncate reduceLoadWidth is called
attempting to narrow the load to 64 bits (ExtVT := MVT::i64). Then
the SRL is detected and we set ShAmt to 64.
In the past we've bailed out due to i96 not being a multiple of 64.
If we simply remove that check then we would end up replacing the
load with a new load that would read 64 bits but with a base pointer
adjusted by 64 bits. So we would read 32 bits the wasn't accessed by
the original load.
This patch will instead utilize the fact that the logical left shift
can be folded away by using a zextload. Thus, the pattern above will
now be combined into
t3 = load i32* ptr+offset, zext to i64
Another case is shown in the X86/shift-folding.ll test case:
t1 = load i32* ptr
t2 = srl i32 t1, 8
t3 = truncate t2 to i16
In the past we bailed out due to the shift count (8) not being a
multiple of 16. Now the narrowing kicks in and we get
t3 = load i16* ptr+offset

Thumb has more 16-bit encoding space dedicated to ADD than ORR, allowing both a
3-address encoding and a wider range of immediates. So, particularly when
optimizing for code size (but it doesn't make things worse elsewhere) it's
beneficial to select an OR operation to an ADD if we know overflow won't occur.
This is made even better by LLVM's penchant for putting operations in canonical
form by converting the other way.

Recommitting r329283, third time lucky...
If the SRL node is only used by an AND, we may be able to set the
ExtVT to the width of the mask, making the AND redundant. To support
this, another check has been added in isLegalNarrowLoad which queries
whether the load is valid.

Recommitting rL321259. Previosuly this caused an issue with PPCBE but
I didn't receieve a reproducer and didn't have the time to follow up.
If the issue appears again, please provide a reproducer so I can fix
it.

Change the calculation for the desired ValueType for non-sign
extending loads, as in those cases we don't care about the
higher bits. This creates a smaller ExtVT and allows for such
combinations as:
(srl (zextload i16, [addr]), 8) -> (zextload i8, [addr + 1])
