I'll fix it up here in the event that v22 goes in, but please do the same on your side in case a new version is needed.

I think this warning is silly for `asm' statements. It's been common for decades to do this to format multi-line `asm' statements, just because it makes them so much more readable. We have roughly two thousand instances in our tree already and I would use this style for new code in the parts I maintain as well.

Now having trailing `);' on a separate line is another matter.
