For a single byte there is a 14-cycle solution. But since it looks like your
having fun, I wouldn't want to spoil anything. :)

BTW, John Payson posted the original solution (for reversing 7 bits). Dmitry
optimized it slightly (again for 7 bits). John's trick is applicable here as
well.

Hint, for the general case, it takes 4 cycles to swap 2 bits. However, it only
takes 2 cycles for the first two bits.
