--- Comment #3 from Xi Ruoyao <ryxi at stu dot xidian.edu.cn> ---
I'm still not convinced this is a bug.  For example, all kernel code
uses `asm volatile ("" ::: "memory")` as barrier to stop GCC to reorder code
through it, not `asm volatile ("" :::)`.  So the developers have been aware
a "asm volatile" does NOT mean a barrier. If we change this behaviour and
stop reordering through all "asm volatile"s, the generated code could be
slower.
