For nested groups like: { [ pattern 1 pattern 2 ] pattern 3 }
the intended behaviour is that patterns 1 and 2 must not overlap with each other; if the insn matches neither then we fall through to pattern 3 as the next thing in the outer overlapping group. Currently we generate incorrect code for this situation, because in the code path for a failed match inside the inner non-overlapping group we generate a "return" statement, which causes decode to stop entirely rather than continuing to the next thing in the outer group. Generate a "break" instead, so that decode flow behaves as required for this nested group case.
