Subregs act much like regs when recognizing operands. So if (REG:SI
...) is a valid operand, then so is (subreg:SI ...).
The SH port defines WORD_REGISTER_OPERATIONS, which means if you put a
QImode value in a register, then you can interchangable use either
(reg:SI) or (reg:qi) because moving a QImode value sets the entire register.
You do have to get the signedness right though. There is some
interaction with LOAD_EXTEND_OP here to only generate the paradoxical
subreg when the signedness is OK. There are occasional problems with
this code.
It isn't obvious what is wrong from your assembly language fragment.
