Flags register is used in I3, but there already is a REG_DEAD note in I3.
The above condition doesn't trigger and continues in the "else" part where
REG_DEAD note is put to I2. The proposed solution corrects the above
logic to trigger every time the register is referenced in I3, avoiding the
"else" part.

* combine.cc (distribute_notes) <case REG_UNUSED>: Correct the
logic when the register is used by I3.
