Can we use a special virtual register as base here? Then after the stack
size is known, we could replace the base/offset with real fp and offset.

1, At what time can the stack size of a procedure be known/fix?
2, Is there any other access to the para array before gen_load_para_value?

Also for the debug stabs generation, we could mark the symbol need to get
special treating, and handle it when writing it out.
