Subject: [PATCH] ARM: warn if pre-UAL assembler syntax is used

Remove the -mno-warn-deprecated assembler flag for GCC versions newer
than 5.1 to make sure the GNU assembler warns in case non-unified
syntax is used.

This also prevents a warning when building with Clang and enabling
its integrated assembler:
clang-10: error: unsupported argument '-mno-warn-deprecated' to option 'Wa,'

This is a second attempt of commit e8c24bbda7d5 ("ARM: 8846/1: warn if
divided syntax assembler is used").
