Bug#95318: Not just cwtl



It seems that it's not just cwtl that gets used unnecessarily.  The same
thing happens with out extension instructions, e.g., movzwl:

Disassembly of section .text:

00000000 <foo>:
#include <ctype.h>

int foo(int c) {
   0:	55                   	push   %ebp
   1:	89 e5                	mov    %esp,%ebp
	return isdigit(c);
   3:	8b 45 08             	mov    0x8(%ebp),%eax
   6:	8b 15 00 00 00 00    	mov    0x0,%edx
			8: R_386_32	__ctype_b
   c:	66 8b 04 42          	mov    (%edx,%eax,2),%ax
  10:	25 00 08 00 00       	and    $0x800,%eax
  15:	0f b7 c0             	movzwl %ax,%eax
}
  18:	5d                   	pop    %ebp
  19:	c3                   	ret
