I want to address that in another patch where I'll do that for all
the opcodes. Just doing it for the fast read looks odd.

Will do.

Mhh can't decide what's better here. On one hand I'd really like to
avoid too much code churn because it's already hard enough to follow
the development using git blame. OTOH, a new flag would need to be
added in between the existing flags. Not sure.. Or we if we run out
of free spots at the end we might get rid of the free slots.
