There is a patch in gcc-5 to make unified assembler syntax the default. Unfortunately, it changes how extended asms work, which is perhaps a bug. The message claims it doesn't affect extended asms, but it does. https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2015-11/msg01196.html The interesting bit is the change to ASM_APP_OFF.
This is now https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=70496 for FSF trunk.
Sorry about the breakage.

gcc-4.9 emits a .thumb after the extended asm to switch back into thumb mode just in case. gcc-5.3 instead emits .syntax unified, which doesn't change the arm/thumb mode, just the syntax supported. This is arguably a bug, but this doesn't immediately help you. It could take a little time to get gcc-5.x source fixed, and then the compiler binary releases. Or alternatively we could fix the asm to work with gcc 5.
