Sure, that's what I've been saying since the beginning: a legitimate (address)
expression coming from a regular insn is equivalenced to the non-legitimate
expression already present in the table because of a debug insn and, thus, the
location of the latter is promoted to non-debug.

Do you mean getting rid of the promotion-to-non-debug-location code?
