Yeah.  I'm jumping in without having read the full thread, sorry,
but the current mechanism for handling this is TARGET_MEM_CONSTRAINT
(added for s390).  That is, TARGET_MEM_CONSTRAINT can be defined to some
new constraint that is more general than the traditional "m" constraint.
This constraint is then the one that is associated with memory_operand
etc.  "m" can then be defined explicitly to the old definition,
so that existing asms continue to work.

So if the port wants generic internal memory addresses to use the
EGPR set (sounds reasonable), then TARGET_MEM_CONSTRAINT would be
a new constraint that maps to those addresses.

Thanks,
Richard
