Subject[PATCH v2] ARM: error out if compiling ARMv6 using Clang before 8.0
Date
The kernel passes the ArmV6K architecture to the compiler when
using the multi platform selection and enabling ARMv6. Clang
older than version 8.0 emit assembly with an non-existing CPU,
which then makes the GNU assembler fail. Warn users when
compiling ARMv6 using Clang before 8.0.
