Hi! On some arches like x86_64 we allow some aggregates in named register variables. If those registers are wider than word, store_bit_field_1 was assuming it must be multiple registers and attempted to pick a word sized subregister of it, which is fine for pseudos, but if the destination is a hard register, sometimes such subreg will fail. If it is a hard register and we know that its mode means a single register (otherwise we wouldn't allow creating a named register variable for it), then that subreg is certainly counter-productive, we just want to store into the whole register.
