The requirement is that reload (which should be LRA on all newer ports,
and is recommended for all ports) always has a path to reload whatever
is thrown at it.  This does mean you need both r->m and m->r in one
pattern normally, yes (all r's can be spilled to stack, and there is no
m->m instruction).  Of course you get by far the best code if you do
have all normal moves in one pattern (one per mode), as you say.

You disallow m->m in the insn condition, like
  "gpc_reg_operand (operands[0], SImode)
   || gpc_reg_operand (operands[1], SImode)"
