We can always eliminate the shift in: icmp gt/lt (shr X, C1), C2 --> icmp gt/lt X, C'
This patch was supposed to just be an efficiency improvement because we were doing this 3-step process to fold:
IC: Visiting: %c = icmp ugt i4 %s, 1 IC: ADD: %s = lshr i4 %x, 1 IC: ADD: %1 = udiv i4 %x, 2 IC: Old = %c = icmp ugt i4 %1, 1 New = <badref> = icmp uge i4 %x, 4 IC: ADD: %c = icmp uge i4 %x, 4 IC: ERASE %2 = icmp ugt i4 %1, 1 IC: Visiting: %c = icmp uge i4 %x, 4 IC: Old = %c = icmp uge i4 %x, 4 New = <badref> = icmp ugt i4 %x, 3 IC: ADD: %c = icmp ugt i4 %x, 3 IC: ERASE %2 = icmp uge i4 %x, 4 IC: Visiting: %c = icmp ugt i4 %x, 3 IC: DCE: %1 = udiv i4 %x, 2 IC: ERASE %1 = udiv i4 %x, 2 IC: DCE: %s = lshr i4 %x, 1 IC: ERASE %s = lshr i4 %x, 1 IC: Visiting: ret i1 %c
When we could go directly to canonical icmp form:
IC: Visiting: %c = icmp ugt i4 %s, 1 IC: Old = %c = icmp ugt i4 %s, 1 New = <badref> = icmp ugt i4 %x, 3 IC: ADD: %c = icmp ugt i4 %x, 3 IC: ERASE %1 = icmp ugt i4 %s, 1 IC: ADD: %s = lshr i4 %x, 1 IC: DCE: %s = lshr i4 %x, 1 IC: ERASE %s = lshr i4 %x, 1 IC: Visiting: %c = icmp ugt i4 %x, 3
...but then I noticed that the folds were incomplete too:

Here are attempts to prove the logic with Alive:

Name: lshr_ult Pre: ((C2 << C1) u>> C1) == C2 %sh = lshr i8 %x, C1 %r = icmp ult i8 %sh, C2 => %r = icmp ult i8 %x, (C2 << C1) Name: ashr_slt Pre: ((C2 << C1) >> C1) == C2 %sh = ashr i8 %x, C1 %r = icmp slt i8 %sh, C2 => %r = icmp slt i8 %x, (C2 << C1) Name: lshr_ugt Pre: (C2 != 255) && (((C2+1) << C1) u>> C1) == (C2+1) %sh = lshr i8 %x, C1 %r = icmp ugt i8 %sh, C2 => %r = icmp ugt i8 %x, ((C2+1) << C1) - 1 Name: ashr_sgt Pre: (C2 != 127) && ((C2+1) << C1 != -128) && (((C2+1) << C1) >> C1) == (C2+1) %sh = ashr i8 %x, C1 %r = icmp sgt i8 %sh, C2 => %r = icmp sgt i8 %x, ((C2+1) << C1) - 1
We did something similar for 'shl' in D28406.
