This patch fixes the logic in the DAGCombiner that folds an AND node according
to rule: (and (X (load V)), C) -> (X (load V))
An AND between a vector load 'X' and a constant build_vector 'C' can be folded
into the load itself only if we can prove that the AND operation is redundant.
The algorithm implemented by 'visitAND' firstly computes the splat value 'S'
from C, and then checks if S has the lower 'B' bits set (where B is the size in
bits of the vector element type). The algorithm takes into account also the
'undef' bits in the splat mask.
Unfortunately, the algorithm only worked under the assumption that the size of S
is a multiple of the vector element type. With this patch, we conservatively
avoid folding the AND if the splat bits are not compatible with the vector
element type.
Added X86 test and-load-fold.ll
