Hi,

I've just sent several patches for PR 94743:
https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-patches/2020-May/545747.html
is v2 of my previous patch: it only emits a warning, and might be
sufficient to close the PR, if we decide that
we don't want to save the FP registers without explicit user request...

Then,
[1] https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-patches/2020-May/545748.html
[2] https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-patches/2020-May/545749.html
are refactorization patches that would make implementing the patch
attached here easier.

If you apply the attached on top of [1] and [2], you'll notice an ICE
fixed by the original patch of this thread.

So hopefully applying [1], [2] and the attached should help convince you that
the vfp_operand_register is OK.

Thanks
