KBuild (ab)uses the asm statement to write to a file and llvm integrated as chokes about these invalid asm statements. Workaround it by making it look like valid asm code.

I think Linux has the same problem.
Are you willing to this patch to linux-kbuild ML? Or fixing U-Boot only?
I don't mind in general, but it is just noise for them (cc-ing them to create some). For u-boot (ARM) you actually get a valid binary with this patch after clang support has landed, for linux you just get other errors as far as I tried (native only), patch below.
However in linux there seem more spots relying on the format, e.g. arch/ia64/kvm/Makefile arch/ia64/kernel/Makefile arch/um/Makefile
So if anything, I think this should be made a general rules first in the makefiles. It seems stupid to potentially break something while it gains nothing.
So yes, u-boot only afaic, or does that make your syncing more difficult?
Regards, Jeroen
