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]);
