+Normally, IRA tries to estimate the costs for saving a register in the
+prologue and restoring it in the epilogue. This discourages it from
+using call-saved registers. If a machine wants to ensure that IRA
+allocates registers in the order given by REG_ALLOC_ORDER even if some

In some case register allocation order is not enough for the
Integrated Register Allocator (@acronym{IRA}) to generate a good code.
