Agreed. These one-off things are always a nuisance, and often fall
through the cracks. I've yet to find a good solution for them, although
having them rolled in to -next helps.

In this case I got bit by -fno-partial-inlining instead, and since you
didn't have READABLE_ASM in the subject I missed your patch entirely. In
retrospect I should have searched for cc-option. At least we've now both
scratched our heads and come up with an identical fix independently,
which counts a lot more than a Tested-by ;-)
