compiler/gcc4: Add quirk for 'asm goto' miscompilation bug
Fengguang Wu, Oleg Nesterov and Peter Zijlstra tracked down a kernel crash to a GCC bug: GCC miscompiles certain 'asm goto' constructs, as outlined here: http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=58670 Implement a workaround suggested by Jakub Jelinek.
