Here is an even more minimal example:

struct s { int i[5]; } f(void);
void g(void) { f(); f();}

https://godbolt.org/z/d_KWkh

It's clear that clang does /something/ here when asan-stack=1 is
set, but I fail to see what it is, or why that is necessary.

The output of clang with asan-stack=0 is the expected
code, and basically identical to what gcc produces with or
without asan-stack.
