I'm not sure how it can help. When you write a part of a multi-register mode
using subreg, you get incorrect liveness info. This is why splitting 64-bit
types on 32-bit targets before register allocation gives such a huge gain.
The approach I used in other compilers was to generate multi-register virtual
registers using a single create operation rather than via multiple subreg
writes.
