Isn't this the same as for (i = 0; i < num_instr - 1; i++) ?

Here you're casting a void pointer to an instruction to an unsigned
int pointer, but since we enable compressed instructions this may
result in an unaligned pointer. Using this pointer will work, but may
be slow. Eg. fault to m-mode to be patched up. We already do that in
other places in the arch/riscv, but I'd prefer not to add new
instances of this.
