Per the code in getSelectFoldableOperands() we don't do this transform for div/rem, so I don't think we need the additional handling for those. More importantly, it looks like your patch will also do the undo transform for the case where the select has the identity as one element and a non-constant as the other. I think the diffs will look better if you limited the scalar case to two constant operands. The constant + non-constant case can probably also be beneficial, but the heuristics for that are less obvious.

Posted WIP, then saw this. Updating so we can specify if both arms constant only.
