See the attached patch where I've applied the same approach to other ABIs.

OK, after re-reading the RAA_DirectInRegisters comment a few times I
now understand it's exactly the same as I proposed for RAA_Default.
Not sure why I had not seen that before...

I now use the same enum you've suggested, but I also explicitly set
the RAA_DirectInRegisters's value to 0
so now I can write like this:

  if (RecordArgABI RAA = getRecordArgABI(...))
    ABIArgInfo::getIndirect(0, RAA == CGCXXABI::RAA_DirectInMemory);
  // continue if RAA == RAA_DirectInRegisters.

Is it OK to do so?

I think you've meant just "MS ABI would use RAA_DirectInMemory.",
otherwise my tests fail.
