         and CONCATN.
Shouldn't we be ignoring everything in a debug insn?   I don't see why
CONCAT/CONCATN are special here.
Debug insns are processed by insn scheduling.   I think it is to improve debug
experiences.  It is just that there are no matching usages of CONCAT/CONCATN
in non-debug insns.
But from a dependency standpoint ISTM all debug insn can be ignored.  I
still don't see why concat/concatn should be special here.

I tried to ignore everything in a debug insn.  It caused many regressions in
the GCC testsuite.
Not terribly useful -- what failed and why?
I think the design for debug insns in the scheduler is that they do affect
scheduling decisions, but what is in debug insns should only affect actual
scheduling of the debug insns and not the rest.
So it wouldn't surprise me if ignoring everything in a debug insn broke a
lot.  But I admit I never fully understood how it works, hopefully Alex or
Vlad do.

But if we  look at debug insns in scheduling decisions, wouldn't that likely trigger a variety of compare-debug failures. Something here doesn't make sense.
