It looks to me like that, when the rewrite of the inline asm sections
was committed last May (r210273), there was general agreement that it
needed additional copy-editing to fix markup problems and the like. But,
nobody ever followed up to do that.
Here's my attempt. In addition to fixing markup and capitalization,
I've moved things around a little bit to improve the flow, and rephrased
a few things that I thought were awkward or confusing. I propose to
commit this in a few days unless somebody tells me meanwhile that I've
broken something.... there's no doubt a lot more that could be done to
improve this section further, but I hope this is at least an incremental
improvement.
