When SelectionDAGISel transforms a node representing an inline asm
block, memory constraint information is not preserved. This can cause
constraints to be broken when a memory offset is of the form:
offset + frame index
when the frame is resolved.
By propagating the constraints all the way to the backend, targets can
enforce memory operands of inline assembly to conform to their constraints.
For MIPSR6, some instructions had their offsets reduced to 9 bits from
16 bits such as ll/sc. This becomes problematic when using inline assembly
to perform atomic operations, as an offset can generated that is too big to
encode in the instruction.
