This is an RTL level thing.  The RTL level doesn't have any real understanding
of its operations anyhow.  The combine pass implements optimizations by simply
looking at patterns defined in the backend.  So while its possible that you will
need to add a few tweaks here and there, I would not expect that anything
major would be required once you're generating the right patterns.
