Do you mean gen_lowpart_SUBREG? (force_subreg_lowpart does not exist?)

gen_lowpart_SUBREG ICEs when x is a const_int, so do you mean:
if (CONST_INT_P (x))
  x = gen_lowpart (mode, x);
else
 x = gen_lowpart_SUBREG (mode, x);

Without the checks of the mode sizes, we still have regressions in
DLSTP transform anyway.
