+;; Split sign-extension of single least significant bit as and x,$1;neg x
+(define_insn_and_split "*extv<mode>_1_0"
+  [(set (match_operand:SWI48 0 "register_operand" "=r")
+ (sign_extract:SWI48 (match_operand:SWI48 1 "register_operand" "0")
+    (const_int 1)
+    (const_int 0)))
+   (clobber (reg:CC FLAGS_REG))]
+  ""
+  "#"
+  "&& 1"

No need to use "&&" for an empty insn constraint. Just use
"reload_completed" in this case.

+  [(parallel [(set (match_dup 0) (and:SWI48 (match_dup 1) (const_int 1)))
+      (clobber (reg:CC FLAGS_REG))])
+   (parallel [(set (match_dup 0) (neg:SWI48 (match_dup 0)))
+      (clobber (reg:CC FLAGS_REG))])])

Did you intend to split this after reload? If this is the case, then
reload_completed is missing.

Uros.
