It inlined the function, but also kept a separate
copy because the function it is defined in isn't
static.

You can use local labels, for example

void fun()
{
asm volatile (" movl $0xFFFFFFFF, %%ecx;"
                 "0: loop 0b\n;"
                 :
                 :
                 :"%ecx");
}
