take val and bytes from struct operand may have other issue, when we
writeback
the source register, we need do the assignment from the caller, and then
change
the val back before write src val to dst val. Such as xadd:
c->src.val = c->dst.val;
write_register_operand(&c->src);
c->src.val = c->src.orig_val;
goto add;
