Looks mostly good, though it looks like with -O0 this doesn't delay
lowering of va-arg and thus won't "fix" offloading.  Can you instead
introduce a PROP_gimple_lva, provide it by the stdarg pass and add
a pass_lower_vaarg somewhere where pass_lower_complex_O0 is run
that runs of !PROP_gimple_lva (and also provides it), and require
PROP_gimple_lva by pass_expand?  (just look for PROP_gimple_lcx for
the complex stuff to get an idea what needs to be touched)

Thanks,
Richard.
