[LLVMdev] RFC: CondCodeActions refactor (was RE: Why is this assertion here?)

Yeah just the ordering are the real difference. Also, I  use shifts and masks instead of conditionals and modules. My patch is attached. For me either patch is fine, but what LLVM has now is broken.

Either patch is fine, just need approval from someone to submit.
