For reference, this is basically deleting the `ArgTy != Val->getType()` branch without any replacement.  But the Mips case where that was relevant got fixed a different way in 7f416cc4 , so I think it's dead code anyway.

Maybe worth splitting this into a separate pull request, though, in case it causes an issue for some other target.
