I'm interested in the ability to restrict V8 from generating particular 
instructions use of input/output registers to an [artificial] subset of 
available allocatable registers, and I was curious if the constraint system 
has this ability?

My desire is different from the DefineFixed/UseFixed constraints, which 
select an exact register code to be used for that operand.  In my use-case, 
I'd still like the register allocator to have freedom in choosing the exact 
register mapping from a limited subset of registers (they can be forced to 
be contiguous from a simplicity perspective).

After a cursory review, none of the OperandGenerator's seem to match my 
need at the surface - but I wanted to get some expert-level feedback in 
case I missed something.

Any feedback, insight, or intuition would be greatly appreciated.
