I think a comment here would be useful:
		/* offset does not fit in the load/store immediate,
		 * construct an ADD instruction to apply the offset.
		 */

otherwise I'm sure someone will question why we aren't handling the zero
case below... since zero will fit in the load/store immediate.

FTTP is here! 80Mbps down 10Mbps up. Decent connectivity at last!
