  When the tightest class including both SPECIAL_REGS and GENERAL_REGS
is ALL_REGS, artificially special-casing for *either* to or from, hits
artificially hard.  This gets the port back to the code quality before
the previous patch ("cris: Remove CRIS v32 ACR artefacts") - except
for_vfprintf_r and _vfiprintf_r in newlib (still .8 and .4% larger).

gcc:
	* config/cris/cris.cc (cris_register_move_cost): Remove special pre-ira
	extra cost for ALL_REGS.
