The motivation for filling out these select-of-constants cases goes back to D24480,
where we discussed removing an IR fold from add(zext) --> select. And that goes back to:
https://reviews.llvm.org/rL75531https://reviews.llvm.org/rL159230
The idea is that we should always canonicalize patterns like this to a select-of-constants
in IR because that's the smallest IR and the best for value tracking. Note that we currently
do the opposite in some cases (like the cases in *this* patch). Ie, the proposed folds in
this patch already exist in InstCombine today:
https://github.com/llvm-mirror/llvm/blob/master/lib/Transforms/InstCombine/InstCombineSelect.cpp#L1151
As this patch shows, most targets generate better machine code for simple ext/add/not ops
rather than a select of constants. So the follow-up steps to make this less of a patchwork
of special-case folds and missing IR canonicalization:
1. Have DAGCombiner convert any select of constants into ext/add/not ops.
2 Have InstCombine canonicalize in the other direction (create more selects).
