These are so much nicer. I find the name kind of awkward but the only
thing I could come up with that sounded better was 'gcc-is-at-least' or
'clang-is-at-least' and I don't really feel like painting sheds today,
it's hot outside :)

It might be interesting to move this up to where KBUILD_CFLAGS-y is used
to make it:
KBUILD_CFLAGS-$(call gcc-min-version, 90100) += -Wno-alloc-size-larger-than
But the comment would have to come with so it probably isn't worth
doing. Just throwing it out as an observation.

I think you just dropped '-msse2' for clang.
I guess this wants to be:
ifeq ($(call cc-min-version, 70100, 110000),y)
but it kind of feels bad to hardcode the kernel's minimum supported
version of clang somewhere that is not super easy to grep for when we
upgrade it (I guess I'll add cc-min-version to my list of things to look
for, in addition to the Kconfig variables). Perhaps we should codify it
in a place that can be used within make (using
'scripts/min-tool-version.sh' even) so that we could do something like:
ifeq ($(call cc-min-version, 70100, $(MIN_CLANG_VERSION)),y)
Up to you though.
