That means that it doesn't matter how the value is extended if it starts off at least as large as an i8. All the bits of the size argument are meaningful, though, so it would be bad if it were extended with anything except zeroes.

I forgot that `llvm.memset` always takes an i8 so this was already correct. I added a comment though.

 ; BULK-MEM-NEXT: return

Yes, it doesn't make a difference for i32 arguments so I just left it out.

I tried this out but the assembler didn't like it.
