A whole struct for a function which gets called only once?

Bah, that's a bit too much, if you ask me.

So you're returning two small unsigned integers - i.e., you can just as
well return a single u8 and put address and operand sizes in there:

	ret = oper_sz | addr_sz << 4;

No need for special structs for that.

So you can simplify that into:

	/* A code segment? */
	if (!(desc->b & BIT(11)))
		return defs;

and remove that type_mask thing.
