I think that they can be sent as a series that is picked up by Masahiro
with an ack from an ARM maintainer.

$(AS) is being replaced with $(LLVM_IAS). That line should be:

    def_bool $(success,test $(LLVM_IAS) -eq 1)

I think. That depends on a commit in Masahiro's for-next branch [1] so
it should be based/tested against that.

Otherwise, I agree with Nick's comment about being split into two
patches (one for the init/Kconfig change and one for the ARM change) and
adding the Link tag.

I ran about 75 randconfigs with LD=ld.lld and LLVM_IAS=1 and I did not
see any Kconfig warnings from this and CONFIG_IWMMXT was unset in every
one. Should prevent the errors that you encountered. Feel free to apply
the following tags to any follow up revisions.
