Subject: [PATCH 4.18 307/350] arm64: lse: remove -fcall-used-x0 flag

4.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tri Vo <trong@...roid.com>

commit 2a6c7c367de82951c98a290a21156770f6f82c84 upstream.

x0 is not callee-saved in the PCS. So there is no need to specify
-fcall-used-x0.

Clang doesn't currently support -fcall-used flags. This patch will help
building the kernel with clang.
