I think you should do the additional validation here, instead of=20 generating false positives. You should be able to read the instruction,=20 run it through analyse_instr(), and then use OP_IS_LOAD_STORE() and=20 GETSIZE() to understand the access range. This can be used to then=20 perform a better match against what the user asked for. - Naveen
