So why do you need this?  Can't this be handled in the call/call_value 
expanders or what about attaching the use to CALL_INSN_FUNCTION_USAGE 
from inside ix86_expand_call?  Basically I'm not seeing the need for 
another target hook here.  I think that would significantly simply the 
patch as well.
