Basically something like that:

        case 2:
                /*
                 * From MOVBE definition: "...When the operand size is 16 bits,
                 * the upper word of the destination register remains unchanged
                 * ..."
                 *
                 * Both casting ->valptr and ->val to u16 breaks strict aliasing
                 * rules so we have to do the operation almost per hand.
                 */
                tmp = (u16)ctxt->src.val;
                ctxt->dst.val &= ~0xffffUL;
                ctxt->dst.val |= (unsigned long)swab16(tmp);
		break;

This passes all gcc checks, even the stricter ones when building with W=3.
