/*
 * register dr is one of the special ones (AX, CX, DI, SI, etc.).
 * we need to use it.  if it is already allocated as a temporary
 * (r > 1; can only happen if a routine like sgen passed a
 * special as cgen's res and then cgen used regalloc to reuse
 * it as its own temporary), then move it for now to another
 * register.  caller must call restx to move it back.
 * the move is not necessary if dr == res, because res is
 * known to be dead.
