I don't quite understand this sentence.

Does that mean that legitimate_address_p has to accept MEM as
(part of) a valid address, even when only a hard reg is
allowed as address?

Moreover legitimate_address_p seems outdated / incomplete and
TARGET_ADDR_SPACE_LEGITIMATE_ADDRESS_P the right hook to use.
