Fix the mask to match this.What document can I find information on dstst in? The ISA documents I have handy are either too early (the instruction didn't exist yet) or too late (the instruction was considered obsolete and no details are given).
I've found it in "PowerPC Microprocessor Family: Vector/SIMD Multimedia Extension Technology Programming Environments Manual" Version 2.06 which was the first one Google found. According to this document dstst should have the same reserved bits as dst.
