Ah, indeed. And there are a couple more.

Operand size gets (or at least may get) derived from the output
operand. While we could also constrain that one to 32 bits, it
seems better to have the whole dst.val written just in case. Of
src.val, otoh, we definitely only need to load the low 32 bits
(possibly saving a REX prefix), and we also definitely need to
force the bswap to have 32-bit operand size.
