pc(unsigned short):                                 # @pc(unsigned short)
        popcntw %di, %ax

LLVM 12:
pc(unsigned short):                                 # @pc(unsigned short)

        retq


pc(unsigned short):                                 # @pc(unsigned short)

Maybe the solution is to add i16 -> i32 handling here in X86ISelLowering ?

     setOperationPromotedToType(ISD::CTPOP, MVT::i8, MVT::i32);
