[DAGCombiner] Attempt to mask vectors before zero extension instead of after.
For cases where we TRUNCATE and then ZERO_EXTEND to a larger size (often from vector legalization), see if we can mask the source data and then ZERO_EXTEND (instead of after a ANY_EXTEND). This can help avoid having to generate a larger mask, and possibly applying it to several sub-vectors. (zext (truncate x)) -> (zext (and(x, m)) Includes a minor patch to SystemZ to better recognise 8/16-bit zero extension patterns from RISBG bit-extraction code. This is the first of a number of minor patches to help improve the conversion of byte masks to clear mask shuffles. Differential Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D11764 llvm-svn: 245160
