> Probably nearly everyone who's been relying on inline asm to make their code work has already been following the effort to replace asm! with a better version
Except for my colleague who basically says "nah, they'll never be able to move off the LLVM syntax, the code i'm writing now will be supported forever".
Fortunately, we only have a small amount of assembly, so if we ever do want to upgrade to a version of the compiler which has dropped support, it won't be a lot of work.
Support will likely not be dropped anytime soon, maybe never. You just need to rename it to `llvm_asm!`. Through with `asm!` likely going to be stabilized while `llvm_asm` never going to be stabilized it might be worthwhile to switch to the new asm to get of nightly in the future ;=)
