Thanks for the guidance! I've added a generalized correctness proof to the PR description using symbolic C.

The constraint that C fits in the narrow bitwidth is modeled using llvm.ctlz, and the precondition X u>= C is enforced via llvm.assume. Alive2 verifies the transformation under these conditions.

For convenience, here is the link to the proof: https://alive2.llvm.org/ce/z/jCVPWr
