Try this:

-- Store that info in the CUMULATIVE_ARGS object
-- Pass the info in a "call cookie" as last argument of
   the function like this: FUNCTION_ARG resp. FUNCTION_ARG_ADVANCE
   get called with mode=VOIDmode. Return a CONST_INT and evaluate
   the respective operand of call insn resp. call_calue insn.
