An architecture independent description of a register. This needs to stay architecture independent because it is used by NCGMonad and the register allocators, which are shared by all architectures.

A register, either virtual or real
takeRealReg :: Reg -> Maybe RealRegSource
isVirtualReg :: Reg -> BoolSource
data VirtualReg Source
renameVirtualReg :: Unique -> VirtualReg -> VirtualRegSource
getHiVRegFromLo :: Reg -> RegSource
RealRegs are machine regs which are available for allocation, in the usual way. We know what class they are, because that's part of the processor's architecture.
RealRegPairs are pairs of real registers that are allocated together to hold a larger value, such as with Double regs on SPARC.
regNosOfRealReg :: RealReg -> [RegNo]Source
realRegsAlias :: RealReg -> RealReg -> BoolSource
liftPatchFnToRegReg :: (VirtualReg -> RealReg) -> Reg -> RegSource
The patch function supplied by the allocator maps VirtualReg to RealReg regs, but sometimes we want to apply it to plain old Reg.
