Yup, spot on.

Did you actually manage to trigger this, or was this by inspection?
clang-15 + binutils 2.35 was, IIRC, how we spotted this because that's
what the clang-built-linux CI uses to test the LTS kernels from before
LLVM's IAS was supported for RISC-V. Seemingly all that needs to be
satisfied there is that zihintpause doesn't appear in -march so this has
gone unnoticed.
