So this is similar to Power (rs6000), where we have eight 4-bit CR fields
modelled in GCC (there are machine insns that act on one bit, or on all
32 bits, as well).  In GCC, there are eight registers.

Yes.  A subreg with a non-zero offset has an offset counted in *bytes*.
So modelling this with subregs the way you do cannot work.
