In the SSE decode function gen_sse(), we combine a byte 'b' and a value 'b1' which can be [0..3], and switch on them: b |= (b1 << 8); switch (b) { ... default: unknown_op: gen_unknown_opcode(env, s); return; }
In three cases inside this switch, we were then also checking for "if (b1 >= 2) { goto unknown_op; }". However, this can never happen, because the 'case' values in each place are 0x0nn or 0x1nn and the switch will have directed the b1 == (2, 3) cases to the default already. Delete the dead code. This check was added in commit c045af25a52e9 in 2010; the added code was unnecessary then as well. this commit amounts to a revert of c045af25a52e9.
