In LRA constraints, insn 12 is not deleted because the subreg op in insn 8 (see lra-constraints.c:3662 r199418). In addition, reg 64's rclass is NO_REGS, so redundent spills are inserted. The mode size check (lra-constraints.c:3662 r199418) needs to be considered in update_equiv_regs in IRA, in order not to mark the reg 64 equivalent with mem ip + 2 in this case.
