A restore is supposed to restore some certain register.  Restoring it
into some other register will not work.  Don't.


2016-09-23  Segher Boessenkool  <segher@kernel.crashing.org>

	* regrename.c (build_def_use): Invalidate chains that have a
	REG_CFA_RESTORE on some instruction.

Seems like a good thing regardless of the shrink-wrapping changes. 
There's a comment about 200 lines earlier (egad) which outlines the 
steps.  Can you please add a comment there too.

It would probably be a good idea to refactor build_def_use a bit, but 
I'd understand if you don't want to tackle that.  I don't think that 
desire should block this patch.

As I've said before, I'm not sure we're getting CFA notes right, 
particularly on the older ports, but I don't think that should block 
this patch.


With the earlier comment update change this is OK.
