No, that only changes the register number, not the actual operand
type (which is still an immediate). The copy_operand_info() with 1
as the second argument would clone operand 0 (which already is a
register) and then update the register number. Only that will
guarantee a full fledged register operand (in case any other entity
cares to look at it).
