Description

The variable renamer seems to take the 64-bit addresses. But, the assembly code shows the addresses in 32-bit. I think the expected behavior is to rename the addresses of assembly by the corresponding variable names. A demo picture is given below:

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Variable Renamer behavior described in the issue and compare the 64-bit addresses it uses with the 32-bit addresses shown in the assembly and demo image. Trace the renaming entry point and verify completion by confirming that matching assembly addresses are replaced with their corresponding variable names; the issue does not identify a source file or test.
