This is clang being overly-picky. IMO it should have done the mrs into a
64-bit register, then truncated the value when storing to the 32-bit variable.
Which is what GCC does. Certainly the code as written only needs the low 20
bits of the result.
But your change will not really make any difference to the generated code,
except for 4 more bytes of storage, so:
