I don't think the two are related. This is something being generated by the
mid-end and would normally be fine if the value ended up in a single hard
register.

The problem starts when you have modes that require multiple hard regs, but the
mid-end can't know this at expand time (not for all cases) and only knows for
sure at reload time once a class has been determined.
