Should I just use that then?
Instead of:
cs_base = segment_base_address(regs->cs);
ss_base = segment_base_address(regs->ss);
Use:
cs_base = insn_get_seg_base(regs, INAT_SEG_REG_CS);
ss_base = insn_get_seg_base(regs, INAT_SEG_REG_SS);
As it is used in a few places in the x86 code already. Then I could get rid
of this patch.
