Hi Joey,

I think the NEONDup disassembly *does* add predicate operands, which
from what you said above is incorrect (though possibly harmless if
they're never accessed).
Because of that, we probably need a new namespace for them anyway, and
there's not much point in diverging from existing NEON behaviour of
having a single ARM/Thumb instruction.
Cheers.
Tim.
