The target feature to "reserve" a register is meant to be "don't use this register for anything". For some registers, making sure the register isn't used by the register allocator is sufficient because the compiler/linker won't use them in any other way... but if the compiler uses a register outside register allocation, that doesn't work. If you want a target feature to simulate high register pressure without any expectation that the resulting code actually works, please add a separate "regalloc-test-reserve-all-regs" feature or something like that.
