From: Oleksandr Tyshchenko <oleksandr_tyshchenko@xxxxxxxx> In the ideal world we would never get an undefined behavior when propagating the sign bit since that bit can only be set for access size smaller than the register size (i.e byte/half-word for aarch32, byte/half-word/word for aarch64). In the real world we need to care for *possible* hardware bug such as advertising a sign extension for either 64-bit (or 32-bit) on Arm64 (resp. Arm32). So harden a bit more the code to prevent undefined behavior when propagating the sign bit in case of buggy hardware.
