When performing 32-bit conditional operation operating on lower 32 bits
of a full 64-bit register, register full value isn't changed. We just
potentially gain new knowledge about that register's lower 32 bits.
Unfortunately, __reg_combine_{32,64}_into_{64,32} logic that
reg_set_min_max() performs as a last step, can lose information in some
cases due to __mark_reg64_unbounded() and __reg_assign_32_into_64().
That's bad and completely unnecessary. Especially __reg_assign_32_into_64()
looks completely out of place here, because we are not performing
zero-extending subregister assignment during conditional jump.
So this patch replaced __reg_combine_* with just a normal
reg_bounds_sync() which will do a proper job of deriving u64/s64 bounds
from u32/s32, and vice versa (among all other combinations).
__reg_combine_64_into_32() is also used in one more place,
coerce_reg_to_size(), while handling 1- and 2-byte register loads.
Looking into this, it seems like besides marking subregister as
unbounded before performing reg_bounds_sync(), we were also performing
deduction of smin32/smax32 and umin32/umax32 bounds from respective
smin/smax and umin/umax bounds. It's now redundant as reg_bounds_sync()
performs all the same logic more generically (e.g., without unnecessary
assumption that upper 32 bits of full register should be zero).
Long story short, we remove __reg_combine_64_into_32() completely, and
coerce_reg_to_size() now only does resetting subreg to unbounded and then
performing reg_bounds_sync() to recover as much information as possible
from 64-bit umin/umax and smin/smax bounds, set explicitly in
coerce_reg_to_size() earlier.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
