There are 2 bugs in the can_boost() function because of using x86 insn decoder. Since the insn->opcode never has a prefix byte, it can not find CS override prefix in it. And the insn->attr is the attribute of the opcode, thus inat_is_address_size_prefix( insn->attr) always returns false. Fix those by checking each prefix bytes with for_each_insn_prefix loop and getting the correct attribute for each prefix byte. Also, this removes unlikely, because this is a slow path.
