I don't guess Richard S's proposed cleanups to the generic handling of
SUBREGs to address issues with SVE really help here.

I suspect you're going to need to define secondary reloads here much
like the aarch64 port does.  See aarch64_secondary_reload.

I suspect you also need to twiddle mips_can_change_mode_class.

Unrelated, we should probably get you authenticated access to the source
tree so that you can commit changes as they're approved.

Presumably TARGET_CAN_CHANGE_MODE_CLASS is properly defined

Typically this would be handled via TARGET_CAN_CHANGE_MODE_CLASS and
