You add a lot of cases here without a good reason. Why in this patch?
Simply removing the tcc_comparison checks would have been enough ...

Don't do this association here. Why should it not be applied to
(a TRUTH_ANDIF_EXPR b) TRUTH_AND_EXPR c? Thus, if you
want to associate the above if b and c do not have side-effects then
do so generally, not only when you are converting a TRUTH_ANDIF_EXPR
to TRUTH_AND_EXPR.
Thus, please remove this association code.

See above.
You made the patch more complex when I asked for a simpler one.
