                      IN - Input Byte or Word From Port


       Usage:  IN      accum,port
       Modifies flags: None


       A byte, word or dword is read from "port" and placed in AL, AX or
       EAX respectively.  If the port number is in the range of 0-255
       it can be specified as an immediate, otherwise the port number
       must be specified in DX.  Valid port ranges on the PC are 0-1024,
       though values through 65535 may be specified and recognized by
       third party vendors and PS/2's.

       - 386+ protected mode timings depend on privilege levels.

         first number is the timing if:    CPL ≤ IOPL
         second number is the timing if:   CPL > IOPL or in VM 86 mode (386)
                                           CPL ≥ IOPL  (486)
         third number is the timing when:    virtual mode on 486 processor
       - 486 virtual mode always requires 27 cycles
