Relative jumps and calls do the masking according to the operand size, and not
according to the address size as the KVM emulator does today. In 64-bit mode,
the resulting RIP is always 64-bit. Otherwise it is masked according to the
instruction operand-size. Note that when 16-bit address size is used, bits
63:32 are unmodified.

Just a nit, probably break this up for readability ?

I will make it more readable on the next version.

Thanks,
