The above is definitely wrong, I think it will penalize e.g. Power6/7 a lot.
Even if this was fixed, I'm not sure it is always the correct thing to
do, because it would override swap_commutative_operands_with_target. If
the target is memory, you'd want the memory to come first.
In other words, there is no right answer as to whether REG or MEM should
come first.
I think the register allocator will generate good code using % if you
make your predicate nonimmediate_operand in operand 1:
(define_insn "iorqi3"
[(set (match_operand:QI 0 "register_operand" "=c")
(ior:QI (match_operand:QI 1 "nonimmediate_operand" "%0")
(match_operand:QI 2 "general_operand" "cwmi")))
(clobber (reg:CC RCC))]
"register_operand(operands[1], QImode) ||
register_operand(operands[2], QImode)"
"or\\t%0,%f2")
