[Simon Pilgrim via Phabricator via llvm-commits]

RKSimon added inline comments.


================
Comment at: lib/Target/X86/X86ISelLowering.cpp:37054
+        ShAmt1Op1 = ShAmt1Op1.getOperand(0);
+      }
       if (ShAmt1Op1.getOpcode() == ISD::TRUNCATE)

Yes I think its wrong - we're most likely being saved by the fact that its so tricky to create i16 double shifts from code (PR35155). As I said I'd much prefer to kill all this code and move it to FSHL/FSHR in DAGCombine (PR40081) - I'll take a look.
