There are many different combinations, for example (32-bit code)
long long add_s42(long long a, int b)
{
return a + ((long long) b << 32) + 42;
}
and we generate optimal code on BE for all of those (not on LE yet,
and there is the issue with open-coded carry chains, and and and, and
things shift around. Also all the scc things. But I really should
submit some testcases).
