 It does, a classic `asm' is supposed to act as an optimisation barrier.  

 However since you've used an operand `asm' in `__restore_mxu' I think 
it would be good for consistency to use one here as well; it would make 
this piece of code a little bit more readable too, as you wouldn't have 
to guess that the `asm' writes to `reg_val' then.

 So I suggest that you convert `__save_mxu' to use an operand `asm' as 
well.
