The symptom was that DW_AT_frame_base should never use a DW_OP_(bit)_piece, the bug was that AddMachineRegPiece incorrectly created pieces to describe values that occupy only a subregister. Change this to emit a bit mask instead.
I'm posting this for review because emitting the bit mask increases the size occupied for DWARF expressions for sub-registers (~5 bytes for a 32-bit subregister). Previously we would (incorrectly!) use DW_OP_piece to describe a value occupying part of a register. However, "DW_OP_piece provides a way of describing how large a part of a variable a particular DWARF location description refers to.", not the size and offset of an entire variable inside a super-register. The way that most debuggers implement DW_OP_piece this sort of works out for subregisters that are at offset 0, but it causes confusion if the expression needs to be composed (such as in DW_AT_frame_base, or if the subregister contains only a part of the variable).
This code looks repetitious (same as the code in addAddress) - should it be wrapped up somewhere?
