I guess gcc 4.x? There were issues with include/asm/system.h and gcc 4.x. As far as I understood - it is optimiser that doesn't remove "dead" code (which in its turn would be activated if passed pointer in not properly aligned or points to correct data with allowed size). In my test kernel I just commented out that statement in the header. Frankly speaking, I have not tried to run a kernel compiled with gcc 4.x.
