Yes, error prone. I was also wondering if we should explicitly address
array items when initializing - e.g. in target/s390x/cpu_features.c the
"indexed by feature number for easy lookup" part. More LOC but less
error prone.
As Mimu also suggested, if we can generate something automatically, we
should do that.
