Could you help to expand this more on how it affects some tree-optimization
pass?
I guess some tree-opt will expand gimple expression to rtx, evaluate the cost
or similar and make some decision basing on it. If that is the case, you
probably
can construct one test case to show that: without this patch, the evaluated cost
or similar looks off, the optimization decision is sub-optimal; with this
patch,
the optimization result is expected.
