I'm not convinced asmlinkage is okay to use on data. Recall that in principle
it may expand to an attribute specifying a non-default calling convention.
Such attributes cannot be assumed to continue to be possible to apply to
non-functions, even if such may happen to work with a particular compiler
version.
