Thanks for the reviews!

Oh, right.

Ok, no comments, so let's go with adjusting the test-cases.
But, your patch for the test-cases doesn't work with (or
without) the patch for pr36728-2.c. Bonus points for being very
close, though!
I don't really see *why* your patch shouldn't work.
Specifically, I don't see why the *wrong value* is displayed
instead of at least "<optimized out>" for any changed behavior,
so I entered PR55467 for the related observations.
By instead of your approach; not using x[0] after the asm, and
instead changing the asm to also write the result to an external
variable (i.e. an unknown operation writing there and x[0], with
x[0] as input), I think I mimicked the intended behavior, such
that x[0] is preserved as a variable until the line with the
asm. At least nothing changes for -O1 besides debug info and
the write to the variable "a" in main, for an unpatched gcc
with/without patched test-case. (The patched test-cases all pass
for an otherwise unpatched gcc at r193777.)
Committed after committing the reapplied previous patch; r193802
and r193803.

testsuite:
PR middle-end/55030
* gcc.dg/guality/pr36728-1.c, gcc.dg/guality/pr36728-2.c (foo): Don't
use volatile asms, use plain asms. Where the output value for the
asm is unused, write a global variable.
