+SSE CMP ops with 8bit immediate throw sigill with oversized byte
+
+The SSE comparison ops that use an 8bit immediate as a comparison type selector throws a sigill when the immediate is oversized.
+
+Test op that I found this on is here `66 0f c2 c0 d1          cmppd  xmm0,xmm0,0xd1`
+According to the x86-64 documentation only bits [2:0] are used for these ops (and [4:0] for the AVX variant)
+Currently qemu just checks if the value is >=8 and will throw a sigill in that case. It instead needs to mask.
+
+I have a small patch that fixes the issue for the SSE variant.
+
+
+
+
+This is an automated cleanup. This bug report has been moved to QEMU's
+new bug tracker on gitlab.com and thus gets marked as 'expired' now.
+Please continue with the discussion here:
