Yes you are correct. for_each_rtx also passes NULL_RTX, I was
distracted by "There are no sub-expressions." comment.

+        if (NONDEBUG_INSN_P (insn) && INSN_CODE (insn) != -1)

Do you need to check for INSN_CODE here? IIRC, checking for
NONDEBUG_INSN_P is enough.

+            for_each_rtx (&insn, (rtx_function) ix86_loop_memcount,
&mem_count);
+    }
+  free (bbs);
+
+  if (mem_count <=32)
+    return 32/mem_count;

Ouch... mem_count can be zero. Is there a reason to change this part
from previous patch?

Uros.
