I cannot reproduce this with clang 11.0.1. I did a reverse bisect on
LLVM and found commit 4b0aa5724fea ("Change the INLINEASM_BR MachineInstr
to be a non-terminating instruction.") as the fix (which makes sense,
that commit has direct kernel implications). It is probably worth
upgrading syzkaller's clang to 11.0.1, where I have not seen any
assertions across all of the configurations that I test.

Ccing Dmitry and Marco directly.

Cheers,
