No, not as far as I know. Perhaps something like below, though that
won't affect the already released gcc 9.1 and 9.2, of course.

gcc maintainers, WDYT? Can we add a feature test macro for asm inline()?
For context, I'm trying to add an asm_inline macro to the kernel source
that will fall back to asm when "asm inline" is not supported - see
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20190830231527.22304-1-linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk/
for the whole thread.

Subject: [PATCH] add feature test macro for "asm inline"

Allow users to check availability of "asm inline()" via a feature test
macro. If and when clang implements support for "asm inline()", it's
easier for users if they can just test __HAVE_ASM_INLINE rather than
juggling different version checks for different compilers.

Changelog:

gcc/c-family/

	* c-cppbuiltin.c (c_cpp_builtins): Add pre-define for
	__HAVE_ASM_INLINE.

gcc/

	* doc/cpp.texi: Document predefine __HAVE_ASM_INLINE.
