Hi Richard,

Sorry to take so long to get through the changes after your review.
I am still going through the improving process and waiting for some 
internal company approval to publish the generator of the TCG 
instruction definitions, as we have discussed.

Nevertheless, there are some questions. I will address them near the 
proper places and through the different patches.

Once again, thank you very much for your reviews. ;-)

As you know, we reused the code from binutils to implement the decoder.
In that sense, we kindly request to allow us to do it through binutils 
development flow later on. We will change the tables in binutils
and those changes will also be mirrored to QEMU.
Is this Ok ?
