Unfortunately this is not correct since extended asm is not allowed in
naked functions.
Short-term I'd suggest to use the attached patch, that disables the
ARMv6 asm implementation and uses the C implementation instead.

This is either a bug in gcc or insufficient documentation in gcc.
Could you (or did you already) submit that to the gcc bugzilla?

Description: Disable the ARMv6 asm implementation
This gets miscompiled with recent gcc since gcc does not consider
r3 clobbered by the basic asm in a naked function (see #856487).
.
The imost simple short-term fix is to disable the ARMv6 asm
implementation on armhf and use the C implementation instead.
