But I'm afraid it'd contain other (global) unsigned int type accesses
also.  Currently data_type_cmp() only compares size and type name so it
cannot distinguish two different int variables.

I thought it's ok since we care about types, but we might want to see
global variables (in the same type) - not only register variables -
separately.  Then I think we should compare variable names after type
name (if exists).

Maybe you can set it unconditionally as it's NULL by default.
But you need to free the var_name if rb_find() returns an existing
node.  I think it should be done after you allocate the result.

Here.
