[InstCombine] Fold select with ctlz to cttz
ClosedPublic

Summary

Handle pattern [0]:

int ctz(unsigned int a)
{

int c = __clz(a & -a);
return a ? 31 - c : c;

}

In reality, the compiler can generate much better code for cttz, so fold away this pattern.

Is there a opposite pattern?

I'd prefer that the comments use the same abbreviations as the intrinsics, ctlz and cttz (instead of clz and ctz).
