This, just to pick an example, has

	vaddph	8128(%ecx), %zmm5, %zmm6	 #AVX512_FP16 Disp8
	vaddph	-8192(%edx){1to32}, %zmm5, %zmm6{%k7}{z}	 #AVX512_FP16 Disp8 BROADCAST_EN MASK_ENABLING ZEROCTL

The former is indeed using disp8, but the latter isn't despite the
comment suggesting so. I'd consider it particularly important that
disp8-scaling be covered both without and with broadcast, yet I
don't think I've been able to spot any instance of the latter.

So what are these about? Their name suggests disp8 handling, but
the produced code has no single instance of an 8-bit displacement.
Same for the 64-bit equivalents further down.

Overall this patch if of course close to impossible to review
properly.
