Evan Cheng 8f90b6eb2f The coalescer does not coalesce a virtual register to a physical register if any of the physical register's sub-register live intervals overlaps with the virtual register. This is overly conservative. It prevents a extract_subreg from being coalesced away:
v1024 = EDI  // not killed
      =
      = EDI

One possible solution is for the coalescer to examine the sub-register live intervals in the same manner as the physical register. Another possibility is to examine defs and uses (when needed) of sub-registers. Both solutions are too expensive. For now, look for "short virtual intervals" and scan instructions to look for conflict instead.

This is a small win on x86-64. e.g. It shaves 403.gcc by ~80 instructions.
