I'm not sure why die_get_real_type() returned NULL. The variable has
the type attribute and the function run the loop only if the type is
either const, restrict, volatile, shared or typedef. So I think it
should return the base_type DIE.

Ok, I think I know the reason. You don't need to call die_get_real_type()
here as var_types already has the type, not the variable. Usually we
want a pointer type for a variable. For the final result, you want the
target type of the pointer though.

I think it's better to say found by global register %d.

Just bool global_reg would be enough unless you plan to add more
register types.
