I got the same error message recently (only for DIREG instead of CREG) when
I put edi both in the input list ("=D") and in the clobber list
("%edi") of
some extended assembly. Rewriting the asm code to load edi ourselves instead
of letting the compiler do it fixed that.

There isn't any assembler code in driver.c. If I change the code in
IopReinitializeDrivers a little bit, I've no problems.
