This all implies Loongarch is fine with the nop<->b transition (much
like arm64 is), but I found no actual mention of what transitions are
valid for the architecture in your inst.c file -- perhaps you could put
a small comment there to elucidate the occasional reader that doesn't
have your arch manual memorized?
