I think I have a solution that works without using the HSAILSection 
hack. I resurrect RegisterAsmStreamer and implement a custom 
MCAsmStreamer that overrides the small subset of functionality we 
support and doesn't call SwitchSection. Currently I have to copy-paste 
about 10 overrides from the default MCAsmStreamer. I'll need to put an 
MCBasicAsmStreamer or something like that in a header that I can derive 
from with these overrides. Is something like this an acceptable 
solution? Trying to thread a no switch section flag through the existing 
code seemed like it would make a mess in a lot of places and would be a 
constant burden to consider.
