+ * instructions that load/store a 64-bit value from/to memory to/from
+ * a pair of registers which are used with the mrrc and mcrr instructions.
+ * If used with the ldrd/strd instructions, the a1 parameter is the first
+ * source/destination register and the a2 parameter is the second
+ * source/destination register. Note that the ldrd/strd instructions
+ * already swap the bytes within the words correctly according to the
+ * endianness setting, but the order of the registers need to be effectively
+ * swapped when used with the mrrc/mcrr instructions.
