Ok, but since the pseudo only exists during a short interval, and
reg:SI doesn't change in that interval, any occurrence of the pseudo
can be safely replaced by the REG_EQUIV rtx. Wouldn't this be a valid
use of REG_EQUIV?
Well, "sort of". The problem is how can you ensure that subsequent code
transformation might make that other register change during that interval.
