Sorry, I see what happened now.  Since your patch was not in the crypto
tree yet, I did a fixup to the tip tree merge based on your patch, but
did it by hand and didn't remove the XMM bits from the REG_TYPE
macro ...

So your original patch is probably all good (especially since you
actually tested it :-))
