Carve out a place in instcombine to put transformations which work knowing that their
result is non-zero. Implement an example optimization (PR9814), which allows us to
transform:
A / ((1 << B) >>u 2)
into:
A >>u (B-2)
which we compile into:
_divu3: ## @divu3
leal -2(%rsi), %ecx
shrl %cl, %edi
movl %edi, %eax
ret
instead of:
_divu3: ## @divu3
movb %sil, %cl
movl $1, %esi
shll %cl, %esi
shrl $2, %esi
movl %edi, %eax
xorl %edx, %edx
divl %esi, %eax
ret
