  1. xalancbmk's bitset implementation has a redundant bit clear before setting the same bit.  This can be fixed in a generic way with an additional logical simplification pattern 
  2. bext can be used to extract a single bit, storing the result into an SImode object, even for rv64 since bits 1..63 will be zero'd by the (&1) operation in the bext specification.
  3. ~(1 << N) & C can be safely used for a 32bit object on rv64 when C has 33 or more leading zeros
  4. (1 << N) | C and (1 << N) ^ C can be safely used when the logical XOR/IOR is done in DImode since we don't have to worry about sign-extending a DImode object
  5. An explicit extension of SImode (1 << N) to DImode can be handled with a simple bset with x0 as a source operand
  6. Occasionally GCC will use a "zero_extract" as a destination for some bifield insertions which can be handled with bset/bclr
  7. When the shift count is masked such that we know bit 31 is not changed we can more aggressively generate Zbs instructions.  Two forms
    1. Bit position is masked via AND.
    2. Bit position is masked via NAND
