+These compile into different code, one gets recognized as a switch and the
+other doesn't due to phase ordering issues (PR6212):

+    subType = 4;
+  else if (mainType == 9)
+    subType = 6;

+The following test case (from PR6576):

+
+LLVM emits a comparison with 1 instead of 0. 0 would be equivalent
+and cheaper on most targets.
+
+LLVM prefers comparisons with zero over non-zero in general, but in this
+case it choses instead to keep the max operation obvious.
