I guess the correct way to handle it will be to put a "used" attribute in the
asm-generic/marker.h code, remove the unnecessary "unused" attribute in
asm-powerpc/marker.h and tell people to upgrade their gcc when it is broken.

It's subtle because it quietly drops the section with no other symptoms. It could slip by unnoticed for quite a while.

The other way around would be to make the macro "use" the structure somewhere
without any impact.
asm volatile("" : : "m" (thing));
