Subject: [PATCHv4 1/4] x86/insn-eval: Handle insn_get_opcode() failure

From: "Kirill A. Shutemov" <kirill@...temov.name>

is_string_insn() calls insn_get_opcode() that can fail, but does not
handle the failure.

is_string_insn() interface does not allow to communicate an error to the
caller.

Push insn_get_opcode() to the only non-static user of is_string_insn()
and fail it early if insn_get_opcode() fails.
