Good catch, thanks! I forgot to reformat after polishing the comments.
Will fix it with other potential comments.

The patch which made this issue exposed looks like:
+; Like *rotl<mode>3_insert_3 but work with nonzero_bits rather than
+; explicit AND.
+(define_insn "*rotl<mode>3_insert_8"
+ [(set (match_operand:GPR 0 "gpc_reg_operand" "=r")
+ (ior:GPR (ashift:GPR (match_operand:GPR 1 "gpc_reg_operand" "r")
+ (match_operand:SI 2 "u6bit_cint_operand" "n"))
+ (match_operand:GPR 3 "gpc_reg_operand" "0")))]
+ "HOST_WIDE_INT_1U << INTVAL (operands[2])
+ > nonzero_bits (operands[3], <MODE>mode)"
+{
+ if (<MODE>mode == SImode)
+ return "rlwimi %0,%1,%h2,0,31-%h2";
+ else
+ return "rldimi %0,%1,%H2,0";
+}
+ [(set_attr "type" "insert")])
Some insn matches this pattern in combine, later ira tries to introduce
one new pseudo since it meets the checks in find_moveable_pseudos, but
it fails in the call to validate_change since the nonzero_bits is more
rough and can't satisfy the pattern condition, leaving the unexpected
entry in pseudo_replaced_reg.
