I inserted this pass right after register allocation so that the post-RA scheduler can schedule real instructions as opposed to pseudo instructions. I am not totally sure delaying this until after post-RA scheduling will not have adverse effect on the quality of the schedule generated (For ExtractElementF64, it probably doesn't matter whether you do this before or after RA since it is already split into 2 instructions, but for BuildPairF64, I don;t know).

Ok.
