there are clearly no stores between the load and the store. This fixes
this miscompile reported as PR7833.
This breaks the test/CodeGen/X86/narrow_op-2.ll optimization, which is
safe, but awkward to prove safe. Move it to X86's README.txt.

This doesn't occur much at all, it only seems to formed in the case
when the trunc optimization kicks in due to phase ordering. In that
case it is saves a few bytes on x86-32.

a load/or/and/store sequence into a narrower store when it is
safe. Daniel tells me that clang will start producing this sort
of thing with bitfields, and this does trigger a few dozen times
on 176.gcc produced by llvm-gcc even now.
This compiles code like CodeGen/X86/2009-05-28-DAGCombineCrash.ll
into:
movl %eax, 36(%rdi)
instead of:
movl $4294967295, %eax ## imm = 0xFFFFFFFF
andq 32(%rdi), %rax
shlq $32, %rcx
addq %rax, %rcx
movq %rcx, 32(%rdi)
and each of the testcases into a single store. Each of them used
to compile into craziness like this:
_test4:
movl $65535, %eax ## imm = 0xFFFF
andl (%rdi), %eax
shll $16, %esi
addl %eax, %esi
movl %esi, (%rdi)
ret
