I need to implement a function f() which does not
return. In another function g() I use inline assembly
code to JMP to f(). Though f() does not return,
it JMP to g() sooner or later, and g() JMP to f()     
again. Hence, if f() pushes registers, this
recursive execution will make stack overflow.

Inline functions, as far as I understand, are like
macros so they do not have their unique entry piont
where the assembly code in g() can JMP to.
