  Description:
 
     Transfers a byte or word (or doubleword on the 80386/486) to a
     port from the accumulator register. The port address is specified
     by the destination operand, which can be DX or an 8-bit constant.
 
     In protected mode, a general-protection fault occurs if OUT is
     used when the current privilege level is greater than the value of
     the IOPL flag.
