...rrent functionality as well. As a short term fix, until a new intrinsic is ready, Kevin can add a string attribute to the patchpoint call, say “live-on-return”. Some work maybe needed to support this. One possibility is to add a machine operand flag that is kind of the inverse of EarlyClobber, say LateUse - that’s hard. An easier option would be to generate a second pseudo instruction immediately after the patchpoint that simply uses all the live-on-return values. A cop-out would be to give the call’s register mask operand a different flag so that is is interpreted as a bunch of early-clobber regist...

This is a follow up on a conversation some of us had at the hacker lab -- I noticed that sometimes I will get notified that a deopt value lives in a register that is not callee-save (caller-save I guess, but is there another term for this that is less similar to callee-save?). This surprised me quite a bit since those registers immediately got clobbered by the call inside the patchpoint, so we
