We reviewed this in the lang call today. Everyone read through it. It looked right. Nobody had any notes. |
The asm-goto-with-outputs is still unstable, so in the reference it's still mentioned as forbidden by a check rule.

The entire `asm!` block will have unit type in this case, unless all label blocks diverge, in which case the return type is `!`. |

If it's a compile-time error to have a label
block on an asm block with outputs (as below), then whether it's a compile-time error to specify noreturn
on an asm block with outputs is invariant to whether there are labels, no?

This change is to make r[asm.options.checks.label-with-outputs]
be the only thing that blocks the asm-goto-with-outputs
feature.

The asm-goto-with-outputs is still unstable, so in the reference it's still mentioned as forbidden by a check rule.
