[AArch64] Generate a BFI/BFXIL from 'or (and X, MaskImm), OrImm' iff the value being inserted only sets known zero bits.

Summary

This combine transforms things like

and     w8, w0, #0xfffffff0
movz    w9, #5
orr             w0, w8, w9

to

movz    w8, #5
bfxil   w0, w8, #0, #4

The combine is tuned to make sure we always reduce the number of instructions. We avoid churning code for what is expected to be performance neutral changes (e.g., converted AND+OR to OR+BFI).

Please take a look,
Chad

Rebase patch and fix a few spelling errors.

NotKnownZero might be a clearer name for this, or just get rid of it and use ~KnownZeroBits instead.

I think this is too conservative. It should be okay to have bits that are 1 in the OrImm that are not KnownZero, since you know they will be 1 in the final result. E.g. (or (and x, 0xfffffff0), 0xf5). Essentially the known bits in the final result are KnownZero | OrImm.

Actually, maybe none of the above matters since the IR seems to be canonicalized in this case to widen the and mask to cover all of the 1 bits in the or mask as well.

You might want to change the hard-coded x8/w8 to a regex in these tests to make them a little less brittle w.r.t. future changes.

I agree this may be conservative, but I'm going to defer this improvement for the moment.
