Example generated code: 

 ;; B106: #	B106 B107 <- B105 B106 Loop: B106-B106 inner main of N612 Freq: 293550 

  0x000003ffa9275650: sbfiz	x0, x4, #3, #32 
  0x000003ffa9275654: add	x3, x5, x0 
  0x000003ffa9275658: sbfiz	x7, x4, #3, #32 
  0x000003ffa927565c: ldr	q19, [x3,#16] 
  0x000003ffa9275660: add	x19, x5, x7 
  0x000003ffa9275664: ldr	q20, [x19,#32] ;*daload {reexecute=0 rethrow=0 return_oop=0} 
                                                ; - jnt.scimark2.LU::factor at 237 (line 235) 

both sbfiz and add are strictly indentical and so fully redundant. The
redundant instructions are caused by 2 ConvI2L nodes that are identical
except for their type:

1984 ConvI2L _ 1683 [ 1987 ] debug_idx = 33701984 type = long: dump_spec = #long:minint..maxint-1:www 
1678 ConvI2L _ 1683 [ 1672 ] bci = 49 debug_orig = dump_spec = #long:0..maxint-1:www debug_idx = 30401678 line = 183 type = long: 

The type doesn't help code generation on arm so it could be widened and
duplicated instructions could then be removed. I think the same could be
done on sparc.
