I knew I'd miss at least one in the split-up...

The whole point of using _PRECISION is to have the size be exactly the
same as the mode (bitsize is bigger than the mode for partial-int
modes).  TYPE_SIZE_UNIT should be its storage size, right?  If the
type is not a multiple of BITS_PER_UNIT, the actual size and
stored-in-memory size are going to be different.

The problem in the old code is that BITSIZE is not the size in bits of
the type, it's the size in bytes times BITS_PER_UNIT.  This meant that
all partial-int modes would be converted into their non-partial modes
eventually.  Most of my patch is about avoiding that.

If you still disagree, let's first figure out what the right
relationship between TYPE_SIZE and TYPE_SIZE_UNIT is, for types that
aren't a multiple of BITS_PER_UNIT.

I'm not reducing it, I'm removing a case where it's rounded up.
Rounding up a 20-bit PSImode gives you SImode eventually.
