Going with -O2 should remain pretty safe anyway. Alas, not so for gcc 4.4 - I had forgotten I had tested Ubuntu/Linaro 4.4.7-1ubuntu2 here: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/2101491/ add -O2 to that test script and gcc 4.4 *always* emits calls to __bswap[sd]i2, even with -march=armv6k+. I'll try working on an assembly version given it probably makes more sense, future-gcc-immunity-wise. Otherwise we're back to the old 'if GCC_VERSION >= 40500' in arch/arm/include/asm/swab.h...
