With valgrind on the testcase from PR54146 you can see leaks of the kind

do_reload re-adds the live problem and calls run_fast_dce. Either that
or subsequent passes that end up removing instructions do not bother
with freeing associated DF info. At least I don't see that delete_insn
calls df_insn_delete or so. Thus keeping DF initialized throughout
postreload may be not the best idea ...
