There is a bug in llvm that needs to be fixed before switching to use
the alternative assembly macros in inline assembly call sites.
Therefore alternative_callN using inline assembly to generate the
alternative patch sites should be using the ALTERNATIVE C preprocessor
macro rather than the ALTERNATIVE assembly macro. Using the assembly
macro in an inline assembly instance triggers the following bug on
llvm based toolchains:
