We sometimes see sequences like this:
store %123(...b), [addr + 8]
store %124(...q), [addr]
The existing storepair simplify code requires that the stored registers be physical GP registers, presumably because the lowering for storepair/storepairl cannot handle FP/SIMD regs. However, during register allocation we materialise these constants and end up with the sequence:
ldimmb ... => x0
store x0, [addr + 8]
ldimmq ... => x0
store x0, [addr]
which then makes it very difficult to combine these into storepairs in the post-regalloc simplify pass. This PR permits combining pairs of stores prior to regalloc, provided we can show they are either:
