You'll need clang-9 for x86 because of the asm-goto requirement (or a
selective set of reverts for clang-8) but everything else should be
good with clang-8:

We wrote a Python script that builds an LLVM 9 toolchain suitable for
kernel development that is self contained (doesn't install anything to
your system):

Let me know if there are any issues with it if you give it a go, I've
already fixed one from Thomas Gleixner:
