Those checks have nothing to do with that at all.  The whole point of
__asmeq() is to catch situations where you use register variables,
specifying which register you want them in, and GCC then ends up
passing them to assembly code in some other random register(s).

This was found with older GCCs, and the problem was fixed.  It has
nothing to do with naked functions per se.

In fact, as you're introducing further register variables, these
checks become more important to have than they were with the
previous code.
