As discussed in:
https://llvm.org/PR49055
We invert instcombine's add->or transform here
because it makes it easier to identify factorization
transforms like the mul in the motivating test.
This extends the logic added with:
https://reviews.llvm.org/rG70472f3https://reviews.llvm.org/rG93f3d7f
(I intentionally kept the formatting fix in this patch
to provide more context about the calling logic.)
This is slightly better compile-time wise,
since we avoid potentially-costly knownbits analysis that will
ultimately not allow us to actually do anything with said `add`.
InstCombine is quite aggressive in doing the opposite transform,
folding `add` of operands with no common bits set into an `or`,
and that not many things support that new pattern..
In this case, teaching Reassociate about it is easy,
there's preexisting art for `sub`/`shl`:
just convert such an `or` into an `add`:
