    The inputs of lstm unit includes :math:`x_t`, :math:`h_{t-1}` and
    :math:`c_{t-1}`. The implementation separates the linear transformation
    and non-linear transformation apart. Here, we take :math:`i_t` as an
    example. The linear transformation is applied by calling a `fc` layer and
    the equation is:

        .. math::

    The non-linear transformation is applied by calling `lstm_unit_op` and the
    equation is:

        .. math::

            i_t = \sigma(L_{i_t})

    This layer has two outputs including :math:`o_t` and :math:`h_t`.

        forget_bias (float): The forget bias of lstm unit.
        param_attr (ParamAttr): The attributes of parameter weights, used to set
            initializer, name etc.
        bias_attr (ParamAttr): The attributes of bias weights, used to set
            initializer, name etc.
        main_program (Program): The main program.
