I would really like to do this without causing churn to all of the targets (and causing pain for all out-of-tree targets). How about we do this:

void setBooleanContents(BooleanContent Ty) { BooleanContents = Ty; BooleanFloatContents = Ty; }

void setBooleanContents(BooleanContent Ty, BooleanContent FTy) { BooleanContents = Ty; BooleanFloatContents = FTy; }

do that the current target code will continue to do the right thing.

This is fairly easy if C is the SETCC node, but it can potentially be undiscoverable (or not reasonably discoverable). For example, it could be in another basic block or it could require searching a complicated expression.
Okay, this is reasonable. Please make the source-code comment as informative as your reply :-)

Please make the comment reference the comment above (in DAGCombiner::visitSELECT) for an explanation.
