My feeling was just that:
1. We already have "optimized asm" for a few archs, and I didn't see a
strong argument for removing it.
2. There's a chance to mess up odd arch-specific requirements,
alignment, etc. in the new asm fragment unless it undergoes some
careful review.
However I do also agree with you, and think simplicity/consistency
possibly override reason #1 above, and #2 could easily be handled if
some time is put into review and testing of the new code.
Anyone else have opinions on the matter?
Rich
