Subject: [PATCH v2 00/28] Add support for Clang LTO
This patch series adds support for building x86_64 and arm64 kernels
with Clang's Link Time Optimization (LTO).
In addition to performance, the primary motivation for LTO is
to allow Clang's Control-Flow Integrity (CFI) to be used in the
kernel. Google has shipped millions of Pixel devices running three
major kernel versions with LTO+CFI since 2018.
Most of the patches are build system changes for handling LLVM
bitcode, which Clang produces with LTO instead of ELF object files,
postponing ELF processing until a later stage, and ensuring initcall
ordering.
Note that patches 1-4 are not directly related to LTO, but are
needed to compile LTO kernels with ToT Clang, so I'm including them
in the series for your convenience:
- Patches 1-3 are required for building the kernel with ToT Clang,
and IAS, and patch 4 is needed to build allmodconfig with LTO.
- Patches 3-4 are already in linux-next, but not yet in 5.9-rc.

Changes in v2:
- Fixed -Wmissing-prototypes warnings with W=1.
- Dropped cc-option from -fsplit-lto-unit and added .thinlto-cache
scrubbing to make distclean.
- Added a comment about Clang >=11 being required.
- Added a patch to disable LTO for the arm64 KVM nVHE code.
- Disabled objtool's noinstr validation with LTO unless enabled.
- Included Peter's proposed objtool mcount patch in the series
and replaced recordmcount with the objtool pass to avoid
whitelisting relocations that are not calls.
- Updated several commit messages with better explanations.
