Subject: [PATCH 5.5 132/150] arm64: lse: Fix LSE atomics with LLVM

From: Vincenzo Frascino <vincenzo.frascino@....com>

commit dd1f6308b28edf0452dd5dc7877992903ec61e69 upstream.

Commit e0d5896bd356 ("arm64: lse: fix LSE atomics with LLVM's integrated
assembler") broke the build when clang is used in connjunction with the
binutils assembler ("-no-integrated-as"). This happens because
__LSE_PREAMBLE is defined as ".arch armv8-a+lse", which overrides the
version of the CPU architecture passed via the "-march" paramter to gas:

$ aarch64-none-linux-gnu-as -EL -I ./arch/arm64/include
                                -I ./arch/arm64/include/generated
                                -I ./include -I ./include
                                -I ./arch/arm64/include/uapi
                                -I ./arch/arm64/include/generated/uapi
                                -I ./include/uapi -I ./include/generated/uapi
                                -I ./init -I ./init
                                -march=armv8.3-a -o init/do_mounts.o
                                /tmp/do_mounts-d7992a.s
/tmp/do_mounts-d7992a.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/do_mounts-d7992a.s:1959: Error: selected processor does not support `autiasp'
/tmp/do_mounts-d7992a.s:2021: Error: selected processor does not support `paciasp'

/tmp/do_mounts-d7992a.s:2494: Error: selected processor does not support `autiasp'

Fix the issue by replacing ".arch armv8-a+lse" with ".arch_extension lse".
Sami confirms that the clang integrated assembler does now support the
'.arch_extension' directive, so this change will be fine even for LTO
builds in future.
