-A function call isn't allowed in the const's initialization expression
-because the expression's value must be known at compile-time.
-
-Erroneous code example:
-
-```compile_fail,E0019
-#![feature(asm)]
-
-fn main() {
-    static STATIC11: i32 = {
-        let x: i32;
-        unsafe { asm!("mov rax, 2", out("rax") x) }; // error!
-        x
-    };
-}
-```
-
-Remember: you can't use a function call inside a const's initialization
-expression! However, you can totally use it anywhere else:
-
-```
-enum Test {
-    V1
-}
-
-impl Test {
-    fn func(&self) -> i32 {
-        12
-    }
-}
-
-fn main() {
-    const FOO: Test = Test::V1;
-
-    FOO.func(); // here is good
-    let x = FOO.func(); // or even here!
-}
