[v6 PATCH 03/21] x86/mpx: Do not use R/EBP as base in the SIB byte with Mod = 0

Section 2.2.1.2 of the Intel 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software
Developer's Manual volume 2A states that when a SIB byte is used and the
base of the SIB byte points to R/EBP (i.e., base = 5) and the mod part
of the ModRM byte is zero, the value of such register will not be used
as part of the address computation. To signal this, a -EDOM error is
returned to indicate callers that they should ignore the value.

Also, for this particular case, a displacement of 32-bits should follow
the SIB byte if the mod part of ModRM is equal to zero. The instruction
decoder ensures that this is the case.
