I general I tried to keep unnecessary formatting changes out of the patches. At this place I did it anyway, because at least one of the small functions already had 2 spaces instead of 1 but for some strange reason not enough to match up the braces correctly…

Well after the patch the LiveRangeUpdater can operator on any liveranges not just for the vreg liveranges anymore, so it’s not really possible to show a sensible register number in each case and I didn’t want to push context like a register number around just to improve the debug output…
Always outputting the register number in LiveInterval::print would probably be a good idea but it would need some refactoring because there are lots of places in the code where it first prints the register number and the interval and I don’t want to see that info twice. I’ll see if I can create an extra patch for that.

Thanks for the review,
