We've noticed this with some versions in buildroot also, so it seems to
be a more common issue:

So inlining itself may not really be a problem, but it might be worthwhile
hunting down the code that generates the immediate load and seeing if that can
be forced in to a memory access instead, so we avoid the R0 encoding dependence.
These are all in relation to _dl_pagesize at least.
