Description
DR's ARM mangling is much more frequent than x86 due to the stolen register and the user-visible PC register. Thus core DR now has a need for instrumentation optimization. We could consider sharing parts of drreg, or using simple post-mangling passes. This case covers implementing some approach to reduce redundant spills and restores, at least. Xref #511.
