Chris Lattner ce6096f49b Fix a minor code-quality issue. When passing 8 and 16-bit integer constants
to function calls, we would emit dead code, like this:

int Y(int, short, double);
int X() {
  Y(4, 123, 4);
}

--- Old
X:
        sub %ESP, 20
        mov %EAX, 4
        mov DWORD PTR [%ESP], %EAX
***     mov %AX, 123
        mov %AX, 123
        movsx %EAX, %AX
        mov DWORD PTR [%ESP + 4], %EAX
        fld QWORD PTR [.CPIX_0]
        fstp QWORD PTR [%ESP + 8]
        call Y
        mov %EAX, 0
        # IMPLICIT_USE %EAX %ESP
        add %ESP, 20
        ret

Now we emit:
X:
        sub %ESP, 20
        mov %EAX, 4
        mov DWORD PTR [%ESP], %EAX
        mov %AX, 123
        movsx %EAX, %AX
        mov DWORD PTR [%ESP + 4], %EAX
        fld QWORD PTR [.CPIX_0]
        fstp QWORD PTR [%ESP + 8]
        call Y
        mov %EAX, 0
        # IMPLICIT_USE %EAX %ESP
        add %ESP, 20
        ret

Next up, eliminate the mov AX and movsx entirely!
