Abstract
Techniques are described in which an indication is included to indicate a last use of an intermediate value generated as part of determining a final value is not be stored in a general purpose register (GPR). A processing unit avoids storing the intermediate value in the GPR based on the indication because the intermediate value is no longer needed for determining the final value.
