This series proposes a generic (target-agnostic) instruction translation framework.
It basically provides a generic main loop for instruction disassembly, which calls target-specific functions when necessary. This generalization makes inserting new code in the main loop easier, and helps in keeping all targets in synch as to the contents of it. I've only ported i386 as an example to get some feedback, but I'm planning on porting ARM next to see how well it fits into the current organization.
