[llvm-dev] [cfe-dev] [RFC] Loading Bitfields with Smallest Needed Types

It is caused by loadi32:


def loadi32 : PatFrag<(ops node:$ptr), (i32 (unindexedload node:$ptr)), [{
  LoadSDNode *LD = cast<LoadSDNode>(N);
  ISD::LoadExtType ExtType = LD->getExtensionType();
  if (ExtType == ISD::NON_EXTLOAD)
    return true;
  if (ExtType == ISD::EXTLOAD)                                  // *
    return LD->getAlignment() >= 4 && LD->isSimple();           // *
  return false;
}]>;


Without the commented lines, movzwl should be generated.
