Correct unpacking of 3 operands on 32-bit archictectures
0a4750f91c83 optimized unpacking by removing a mask operation
when unpacking three packed operands. Unfortunately, that optimization
is only safe on 64-bit architectures.
Here is what happens on 32-bit architectures.
The operands to be packed are 10-bit register numbers that have been
turned into byte offsets:
aaaaaaaaaa00
bbbbbbbbbb00
cccccccccc00
They can be packed into a single word like this:
30 20 10 0
| | | |
aa aaaaaaaabb bbbbbbbbcc cccccccc00
If we call the packed word P, the original operands can be
extracted like this:
C = P band 2#111111111100
B = (P bsr 10) band 2#111111111100
A = (P bsr 20) band 2#111111111100
The bug was that A was extracted without the masking:
A = P bsr 20
That would give A the value:
aaaaaaaaaaaabb
That would only be safe if the two most significant bits in B
were zeroes.
