CVTPI2PD (which converts 2 x I32 in M64 or MMX to 2 x F64 in XMM):
only switch the x87 FPU to MMX mode in the case where the source
operand is in memory, not in an MMX register. This fixes #210264.
This is all very fishy.
* it's inconsistent with all other instructions which convert between
values in (MMX or M64) and XMM, in that they put the FPU in MMX mode
even if the source is memory, not MMX. (for example, CVTPI2PS).
At least, that's what the Intel docs appear to say.
* the AMD documentation makes no mention at all of this. For example
it makes no differentiation in this matter between CVTPI2PD and
CVTPI2PS.
I wonder if Intel surreptitiously changed the behaviour of CVTPI2PD
since this code was written circa 5 years ago. Or, whether the Intel
and AMD implementations differ in this respect.
