/*
 * Whereas a SSA name describes a definition of a Dalvik vreg, the RegLocation describes
 * the type of an SSA name (and, can also be used by code generators to record where the
 * value is located (i.e. - physical register, frame, spill, etc.).  For each SSA name (SReg)
 * there is a RegLocation.
 * A note on SSA names:
 *   o SSA names for Dalvik vRegs v0..vN will be assigned 0..N.  These represent the "vN_0"
 *     names.  Negative SSA names represent special values not present in the Dalvik byte code.
 *     For example, SSA name -1 represents an invalid SSA name, and SSA name -2 represents the
 *     the Method pointer.  SSA names < -2 are reserved for future use.
 *   o The vN_0 names for non-argument Dalvik should in practice never be used (as they would
 *     represent the read of an undefined local variable).  The first definition of the
 *     underlying Dalvik vReg will result in a vN_1 name.
 *
 * FIXME: The orig_sreg field was added as a workaround for llvm bitcode generation.  With
 * the latest restructuring, we should be able to remove it and rely on s_reg_low throughout.
