Technically I would say it was a kernel bug.

gcc can't really know how many instructions are there inside inline asm
so it's probably very conservative in its estimation.

So I would recommend to close it. Possibly another bug could be opened
for better estimation of inline asm instructions, but that's really
a separate problem.
