Hi,

When checking the assembly output of a program I discovered that calls to
'round' wouldn't get optimized away when the argument is a known constant.

For example, with this little test case (the printf is there so the compiler
wouldn't just remove the call to round)

#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    printf("%lf\n",round(0.9));
    return 0;
}

using `clang -O2 -S` I get that there's a call to round in the assembly, while
`gcc -O2 -S` can remove the call to round.

More interesting is the case with '1.' instead of '0.9', in which the assembly
shows '1.' as float, a call to roundf and a conversion from float to double.

This may be a duplicate of https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=22944 but that
is about simplifying the calls, while this is about constant propagation.

Thanks in advance!
