Thanks, I pushed the patch without any modifications.

It might be more efficient but it is incorrect as we want to keep
x86DataIteratorInit() reentrant.

Unfortunately we can't since it wouldn't compile. We could, however rewrite it
as

    iter->data = data;
    iter->pos = -1;
    iter->extended = false;

I prefer to reuse DATA_ITERATOR_INIT() instead.
