This essentially kills code (e.g. _imul_const_scaled in x86).
The last two operations (ZERO_ARRAY and CALL_MALLOC_NURSERY_VARSIZE) do not calculate scaling on their own, but let rewrite handle it.
I'm not quite sure if the following is desired (some backends e.g. ppc): nursery_varsize will always gets ConstInt(1) as a scaling factor.
