#     work around gcc bugs with 'asm goto' with outputs
#     
#     We've had issues with gcc and 'asm goto' before, and we created a
#     'asm_volatile_goto()' macro for that in the past: see commits
#     3f0116c3238a ("compiler/gcc4: Add quirk for 'asm goto' miscompilation
#     bug") and a9f180345f53 ("compiler/gcc4: Make quirk for
#     asm_volatile_goto() unconditional").
#     
#     Then, much later, we ended up removing the workaround in commit
#     43c249ea0b1e ("compiler-gcc.h: remove ancient workaround for gcc PR
#     58670") because we no longer supported building the kernel with the
#     affected gcc versions, but we left the macro uses around.
#     
#     Now, Sean Christopherson reports a new version of a very similar
#     problem, which is fixed by re-applying that ancient workaround.  But the
#     problem in question is limited to only the 'asm goto with outputs'
#     cases, so instead of re-introducing the old workaround as-is, let's
#     rename and limit the workaround to just that much less common case.
#     
#     It looks like there are at least two separate issues that all hit in
#     this area:
#     
#      (a) some versions of gcc don't mark the asm goto as 'volatile' when it
#          has outputs:
#     
#             https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=98619
#             https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=110420
#     
#          which is easy to work around by just adding the 'volatile' by hand.
#     
#      (b) Internal compiler errors:
#     
#             https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=110422
#     
#          which are worked around by adding the extra empty 'asm' as a
#          barrier, as in the original workaround.
#     
#     but the problem Sean sees may be a third thing since it involves bad
#     code generation (not an ICE) even with the manually added 'volatile'.
#     
#     but the same old workaround works for this case, even if this feels a
#     bit like voodoo programming and may only be hiding the issue.
