We have some inline assemblies where the extable entry points to a label at the end of an inline assembly which is not followed by an instruction. On the other hand we have also inline assemblies where the extable entry points to the first instruction of an inline assembly. If a first type inline asm (extable point to empty label at the end) would be directly followed by a second type inline asm (extable points to first instruction) then we would have two different extable entries that point to the same instruction but would have a different target address. This can lead to quite random behaviour, depending on sorting order. I verified that we currently do not have such collisions within the kernel. However to avoid such subtle bugs add a couple of nop instructions to those inline assemblies which contain an extable that points to an empty label.
