I agree with the general change, but it's better to just add
a prev field in MonoInst. This way we don't need to change
all the code in all the architectures and risk regressions
(some of which can be subtle as with many low-level JIT changes).
With the new field in MonoInst that change can be done much more
incrementally and so it can also be incrementally tested.

Thanks!
