We already do create shared instances of hard registers. Most notable
ones are frame_pointer_rtx and friends. These also needs to remain
unique, so we can't use simple hash table and unionize all hard
registers with same code, but I don't think it is problem to avoid
gen_rtx_REG and create shared instances.
