1. test/Regression/Transforms/InstCombine/JavaCompare.ll fails without
it.
2. Since Res1 is truncated to SrcTy, if the source of the LHS cast is
also bool,
the compare is fine, type wise.
3. Since Res2 is Res1 casted back to the Cast's destination type and
Res2
is equal to the RHS constant.
Without this we miss optimization opportunities.
