You can use the same logic as ComputeNumSignBits: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/92a91f71ee217b71a0655338dc063d557fbe33c0/llvm/lib/Analysis/ValueTracking.cpp#L4278-L4280
Adjusted for the case where the sign bits are the same for both operands:
```
unsigned OutValidBits = 2 * (TyBits - SignBits + 1);
unsigned OutSignBits = OutValidBits > TyBits ? 1 : TyBits - OutValidBits + 1;
```
