The existing AArch64 implementation of preferred_reload_class when
called with a destination regclass STACK_REG returns the wider register
class GENERAL_REG. This patch changes the behavior such that we only
return a narrower class (or NO_REGS) and never return a wider class.
I'll leave this on the list 24h before committing.
