Would that be something like this?

static inline void movdir64b(void *dst, const void *src)
{
struct dstbytes {
char pad[64];
};

/* movdir64b [rdx], rax */
asm volatile(".byte 0x66, 0x0f, 0x38, 0xf8, 0x02"
: "=m" (*(struct dstbytes *)dst)
: "d" (src), "a" (dst));
}

Or did you have something else in mind?
