I made the element_size be 8 deliberately because this way, with
size=4 but element_size=8, the code will naturally choose the correct
word (the least-significant word of the left half) of the register to
store into memory.  With this change you then need the special case in
a later patch for stxsiwx, which you shouldn't need if you don't make
this change.
