Re: [PATCH] Fix regression for missed combine opportunity

A regression was introduced when changes were made to canonicalize
XOR/MINUS signbit to PLUS signbit. Code to combine an XOR feeding a
ZERO_EXTRACT was not recognizing the opportunity because the XOR was
canonicalized into a PLUS.
An example of what this fixes:
if ((u & 16) == 0) ...
Old:
xori 3,3,16
andi. 0,3,16
beq 0,.L2
New:
andi. 0,3,16
bne 0,.L2
Bootstrapped/regtested on powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu with no new
regressions.
Just a note that this is PR 18002 (I noticed it while looking into
bug reports). This also effects 3.4.x.
Thanks,
