OK we certainly need this.

Add an explict .arch armv5 in the inline assembly to allow the ARMv5
specific instructions regardless of the compiler -march= target.

You probably mean...

+.arch xscale                                   \n\
        pld     [%0, #0]                        \n\

Explicit .arch xscale rather than .arch armv5.
