Use __imm_insn to fix this issue.

Hi Feng,
This message felt through cracks a bit. It's a minor thing, of course, but there is a legit question of how much backward we'd like to support clang versions for the test suite.
Could you please provide some detail on your build environment, why do you want to run the tests with older clang?
Hi Eduard,
Actually, there is no specific reason to test with an older version of Clang. It's just that the Clang downloaded from the source is this version, and installing a newer version by myself would be rather troublesome.
clang version 17.0.6 GNU Make 4.4.1 gcc (GCC) 12.3.1 linux version: 6.6 arch: x86-64
