-		Chapter 19:  Inline assembly
-
-In architecture-specific code, you may need to use inline assembly to interface
-with CPU or platform functionality.  Don't hesitate to do so when necessary.
-However, don't use inline assembly gratuitously when C can do the job.  You can
-and should poke hardware from C when possible.
-
-Consider writing simple helper functions that wrap common bits of inline
-assembly, rather than repeatedly writing them with slight variations.  Remember
-that inline assembly can use C parameters.
-
-Large, non-trivial assembly functions should go in .S files, with corresponding
-C prototypes defined in C header files.  The C prototypes for assembly
-functions should use "asmlinkage".
-
-You may need to mark your asm statement as volatile, to prevent GCC from
-removing it if GCC doesn't notice any side effects.  You don't always need to
-do so, though, and doing so unnecessarily can limit optimization.
-
-When writing a single inline assembly statement containing multiple
-instructions, put each instruction on a separate line in a separate quoted
-string, and end each string except the last with \n\t to properly indent the
-next instruction in the assembly output:
-
-	asm ("magic %reg1, #42\n\t"
-	     "more_magic %reg2, %reg3"
-	     : /* outputs */ : /* inputs */ : /* clobbers */);
