Fold code like:

  if (C)
    V1 |= V2;

into:
  Vx = V1 | V2;
  V1 = select C, V1, Vx

when the expression can be evaluated unconditionally and is *cheap* to
execute.  This limited form of if conversion is quite handy in lots of cases.
For example, it turns this testcase into straight-line code:

int in0 ; int in1 ; int in2 ; int in3 ;
int in4 ; int in5 ; int in6 ; int in7 ;
int in8 ; int in9 ; int in10; int in11;
int in12; int in13; int in14; int in15;
long output;

void mux(void) {
  output =
      (in0   ?  0x00000001 : 0) | (in1   ?  0x00000002 : 0) |
      (in2   ?  0x00000004 : 0) | (in3   ?  0x00000008 : 0) |
      (in4   ?  0x00000010 : 0) | (in5   ?  0x00000020 : 0) |
      (in6   ?  0x00000040 : 0) | (in7   ?  0x00000080 : 0) |
      (in8   ?  0x00000100 : 0) | (in9   ?  0x00000200 : 0) |
      (in10  ?  0x00000400 : 0) | (in11  ?  0x00000800 : 0) |
      (in12  ?  0x00001000 : 0) | (in13  ?  0x00002000 : 0) |
      (in14  ?  0x00004000 : 0) | (in15  ?  0x00008000 : 0) ;
}
