As discussed out of band, slight change of plan. Let's keep the
implementation in pci_insn.c for now but remove the __* prefix and the
iib 0 wrapper. This way we get rid of potential confusion of swapping
what each variant does and we also don't need to export a __* prefixed
function. I tried it out locally and having the iib 0 at the callsites
indeed doesn't look worse.
