First of all thanks. I think part of switch expansion moved to switch-conversion some time ago (emit_case_bit_tests). So maybe the full lowering should be in at least the same source file and it should maybe applied earlier for a subset of cases (very low number of cases for example). Did you base the code on the RTL expansion code or did you re-write it from scratch? No further comments sofar.
