... of the huge monolithic source file. The series is largely code
movement and hence has the intention of not incurring any functional
change.

It has now been almost a year since the v1 submission, without having
had any feedback. Some re-basing was necessary in the meantime, and a
new patch (the last one) has been added - even if seemingly unrelated,
it was in this context where I did think of that possible adjustment
(which may want to be viewed somewhat RFC, as I know there are
reservations against the use of -Os).

1: split off opcode 0f01 handling
2: split off opcode 0fae handling
3: split off opcode 0fc7 handling
4: split off FPU opcode handling
5: split off insn decoding
6: move x86_emul_blk() to separate source file
7: move various utility functions to separate source files
8: build with -Os
