I'm building both addresses and subtracting them to get the offset.
I guess the other option is to compute just the address of the base
(i.e. base_addr), and add offset (if non-NULL) plus bitpos / BITS_PER_UNIT
plus offset from the MEM_REF (if any).  In that case it would probably
handle any handled_component_p and bitfields too.
