I remember Xuerui disliked this change. Maybe we can add
__attribute__ (__transparent_union__) [1] for union
loongarch_instruction instead?

OK, let me pass union parameter, then define a local variable
to do type conversion for callers, the changes are small and
then the code may be more readable, thank you.

Thanks,
