Thanks.
I probably missed that because the correct formatting looks horrible:

	  stack.store (pv_add_constant (regs[rn],
					inst.operands[1].addr.offset.imm),
		       size, regs[rt]);

Instead, I can update it to the following

	  stack.store (
	    pv_add_constant (regs[rn], inst.operands[1].addr.offset.imm),
	    size, regs[rt]);
