Rich Felker 74483c5955 mark arm thread-pointer-loading inline asm as volatile
this builds on commits a603a75a72 and
0ba35d69c0 to ensure that a compiler
cannot conclude that it's valid to reorder the asm to a point before
the thread pointer is set up, or to treat the inline function as if it
were declared with attribute((const)).

other archs already use volatile asm for thread pointer loading.

    musl libc

musl, pronounced like the word "mussel", is an MIT-licensed
implementation of the standard C library targetting the Linux syscall
API, suitable for use in a wide range of deployment environments. musl
offers efficient static and dynamic linking support, lightweight code
and low runtime overhead, strong fail-safe guarantees under correct
usage, and correctness in the sense of standards conformance and
safety. musl is built on the principle that these goals are best
achieved through simple code that is easy to understand and maintain.

The 1.1 release series for musl features coverage for all interfaces
defined in ISO C99 and POSIX 2008 base, along with a number of
non-standardized interfaces for compatibility with Linux, BSD, and
glibc functionality.

For basic installation instructions, see the included INSTALL file.
Information on full musl-targeted compiler toolchains, system
bootstrapping, and Linux distributions built on musl can be found on
the project website:
