The above does not add another at all. It was there before, it just
moves it around slightly. Instead we depend on the non-zero bits to be
correct before even trying get_def_for_expr .
The get_def_for_expr is there to remove the & if it can be ter'ed.

For the TER case, it would be same number of gimple instructions so
that can happen if we want
t = a & CST
result = t != 0
vs:
t1 = BIT_FIELD_REF <a, 1, N>
result = (bool)t1

For the non-TER case (which is what this patch is trying to solve).
we just have `t != 0` (where t has a non-zero value of CST) so it might increase
the number of gimple instructions by 1.

Is that ok? Or should that still happen in expand only.

The cost issue between a != 0 vs bit_extraction (for the non-ter case)
is something which I will be solving next weekend.
