Should we also have a check here that the doubleword is not crossing a
page boundary?  I can't think of a way to get this code to cross a
page boundary, assuming the hardware is working correctly, but it
makes me just a little nervous.

Ick.  Is there a cleaner way to do this?

The way the code worked before, the mask depended on whether the
instruction was a D-form (or DS-form or other variant) instruction,
where you can tell loads and stores apart by looking at the major
opcode, or an X-form instruction, where you look at the minor opcode.

Now we are only looking at the minor opcode if it is not a prefixed
instruction.  Are there no X-form prefixed loads or stores?
