It's beneficial for exactly the same reason as the existing fold - we eliminate the binop. The fact that the case with constant operand 0 isn't already folded was just an oversight in the original patch. 

Currently, this patch miscompiles on these cases, so we need more tests and a code change whether we treat that difference as part of this patch or not.

Here's a scalar example for Aarch64 in case it makes it easier to see:

```
define i32 @sel_constants_sub_constant_op0(i1 %cond) {
  %sel = select i1 %cond, i32 12, i32 42
  %bo = sub i32 500, %sel
  ret i32 %bo
}

```
Current codegen:

```
	tst	w0, #0x1
	mov	w8, #42
	orr	w9, wzr, #0xc
	csel	w8, w9, w8, ne
	mov	w9, #500
	sub	w0, w9, w8
	ret
```

And with this patch applied (miscompile):

```
	tst	w0, #0x1
	mov	w8, #-458  ; 500 - 42 != -458
	mov	w9, #-488  ; 500 - 12 != -488
	csel	w0, w9, w8, ne
	ret

```
