Does that testcase really exist in real codebases? I think it is reasonable to ignore such possibility.

And since you mentioned Clang in that PR: Do you know that Clang assumes an `unsigned short` parameter that is passed via a 32-bit register has its all upper half bits as zeroes [1]? This of course violates psABI, but there has been no problem in practice. Pedantry is sometimes hindrance.
