From linearscan's point of view, each of reg2036, 2037, and 2038 are separate registers, each is "killed" after a single use. The reloaded register is available and it's often clobbered right away. e.g. In thise case reg1498 is allocated EAX while reg2036 is allocated RAX. This means we end up with multiple reloads from the same stack slot in the same basic block.
Now linearscan recognize there are other reloads from same SS in the same BB. So it'll "downgrade" RAX (and its aliases) after reg2036 is allocated until the next reload (reg2037) is done. This greatly increase the likihood reloads from SS are reused.
This speeds up sha1 from OpenSSL by 5.8%. It is also an across the board win for SPEC2000 and 2006.
