I think you're exactly right that `mv_src >= 0` doesn't do anything by
itself. With this patch, the `mv_src >= 0` check is needed to prevent
a spurious failure for:

mov.l  @r2, r3   ; ld_dst=3, op_dst=3 (set to ld_dst by default)
add    #1, r3    ; B11_8=3
mov.l  r3, @r2

With just mv_src != ld_dst (no mv_src >= 0 guard):
- mv_src = -1, ld_dst = 3
- -1 != 3 -> true -> spurious fail
