For example w/o your patch I see on the first testcase:
<bb 2>:
D.2689_3 = a_2(D) != 0;
D.2690_5 = b_4(D) != 0;
D.2691_6 = D.2690_5 & D.2689_3;
if (D.2691_6 != 0)
goto <bb 3>;
else
goto <bb 4>;
<bb 3>:
D.2693_7 = b_4(D) | a_2(D);
D.2694_8 = D.2693_7 == 0;
D.2695_10 = c_9(D) != 0;
D.2696_11 = D.2695_10 & D.2694_8;
D.2685_16 = (int) D.2696_11;
canonicalizing to the latter (which is also smaller) would be
<bb 2>:
D.2691_5 = a_2(D) & b_4(D);
D.2691_6 = D.2691_5 != 0;
if (D.2691_6 != 0)
goto <bb 3>;
else
goto <bb 4>;
<bb 3>:
D.2693_7 = b_4(D) | a_2(D);
D.2694_8 = ~D.2693_7;
D.2696_11 = c_9(D) & D.2694_8;
D.2696_11 = D.2696_11 != 0;
D.2685_16 = (int) D.2696_11;
that looks re-associatable as good as the other.
