Subject: [PATCH] x86: Allow generating user-space headers without a compiler
When bootstrapping an architecture, it's usual to generate the
kernel's user-space headers (make headers_install) before building a
compiler. Move the compiler check (for asm goto support) to the
archprepare target so that it is only done when building code for the
target.
Fixes: e501ce957a78 ("x86: Force asm-goto")
