Paul, is this OK? I'm  waiting for your ack before sending a number of
dependent KVM patches to Avi.



ppc: Create disassemble.h to extract instruction fields

This is used in a couple places in KVM, but isn't KVM-specific.

However, xmon uses a direct copy of ppc_opc.c from binutils, so xmon won't use
this. emulate_instruction() doesn't need it either, because it can use a series
of mask tests.
