Any particular reason for the change?

It'd be good to assert that imm<n>shift & 1 == 0.

This makes no sense in its current form. It looks like a partial implementation of an inverted op_tst (which doesn't exist in ARM as a single instruction). Note that this code will just fall through the switch and return op_invalid anyway.

"invalid => ScratchRegister"

Please explain (in the comment) what you mean. Is it that we can use ScratchRegister if a destination register is required by the ISA, but not specified?
