This PR is about a case in which we VIEW_CONVERT a variable-sized
unaligned record:

 <record_type 0x7ffff6d92888 check_displace_generation__T245b sizes-gimplified type_7 BLK
    size <var_decl 0x7ffff6846510 D.3499 ...>
    unit-size <var_decl 0x7ffff68465a0 D.3500 ...>
    align:8 ...>

to an aligned 32-bit integer.  The strict-alignment handling of
this case creates an aligned temporary slot, moves the operand
into the slot in the operand's original mode, then accesses the
slot in the more-aligned result mode.

Previously the size of the temporary slot was calculated using:

                  HOST_WIDE_INT temp_size
                    = MAX (int_size_in_bytes (inner_type),
                           (HOST_WIDE_INT) GET_MODE_SIZE (mode));

int_size_in_bytes would return -1 for the variable-length type,
so we'd use the size of the result mode for the slot.  r256152 replaced
int_size_in_bytes with tree_to_poly_uint64, which triggered an ICE.

I'd assumed that variable-length types couldn't occur here, since it
seems strange to view-convert a variable-length type to a fixed-length
one.  It also seemed strange that (with the old code) we'd ignore the
size of the operand if it was a variable V but honour it if it was a
constant C, even though it's presumably possible for V to equal that
C at runtime.

If op0 has BLKmode we do a block copy of GET_MODE_SIZE (mode) bytes
and then convert the slot to "mode":

		  poly_uint64 mode_size = GET_MODE_SIZE (mode);
		  ...
		  if (GET_MODE (op0) == BLKmode)
		    {
		      rtx size_rtx = gen_int_mode (mode_size, Pmode);
		      emit_block_move (new_with_op0_mode, op0, size_rtx,
				       (modifier == EXPAND_STACK_PARM
					? BLOCK_OP_CALL_PARM
					: BLOCK_OP_NORMAL));
		    }
		  else
		    ...

		  op0 = new_rtx;
		}
	    }

	  op0 = adjust_address (op0, mode, 0);

so I think in that case just the size of "mode" is enough, even if op0
is a fixed-size type.  For non-BLKmode op0 we first move in op0's mode
and then convert the slot to "mode":

		    emit_move_insn (new_with_op0_mode, op0);

		  op0 = new_rtx;
		}
	    }

	  op0 = adjust_address (op0, mode, 0);

so I think we want the maximum of the two mode sizes in that case
(assuming they can be different sizes).

But is this VIEW_CONVERT_EXPR really valid?  Maybe this is just
papering over a deeper issue.  There again, the MAX in the old
code was presumably there because the sizes can be different...

IMHO it is on the border of be being invalid (verify_gimple doesn't diagnose it). Using a BIT_FIELD_REF would be much better here.

This happens all the time in Ada when you convert an unconstrained type into 
one of its constrained subtypes (but the run-time sizes must match).

The problem is that Ada exposes VIEW_CONVERT_EXPR to the user and the user can 
do very weird things with it so you need to be prepared for the worst.

This looks good to me, thanks for fixing the problem.  Unexpectedly enough, I 
don't see the failures on SPARC (32-bit or 64-bit).
