When the width of a fill is smaller than the width of the preceding spill, the information about scalar boundaries can still be preserved, as long as it's coerced to the right width (done by coerce_reg_to_size). Even further, if the actual value fits into the fill width, the ID can be preserved as well for further tracking of equal scalars. Implement the above improvements, which makes narrowing fills behave the same as narrowing spills and MOVs between registers. Two tests are adjusted to accommodate for endianness differences and to take into account that it's now allowed to do a narrowing fill from the least significant bits. reg_bounds_sync is added to coerce_reg_to_size to correctly adjust umin/umax boundaries after the var_off truncation, for example, a 64-bit value 0xXXXXXXXX00000000, when read as a 32-bit, gets umin = 0, umax = 0xFFFFFFFF, var_off = (0x0; 0xffffffff00000000), which needs to be synced down to umax = 0, otherwise reg_bounds_sanity_check doesn't pass.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
