Hi Linus,

Please pull this Clang Link Time Optimization series for v5.12-rc1.
This has been in linux-next for the entire last development cycle,
and is built on the work done preparing[0] for LTO by arm64 folks,
tracing folks, etc. This series includes the core changes as well as
the remaining pieces for arm64 (LTO has been the default build method on
Android for about 3 years now, as it is the prerequisite for the Control
Flow Integrity protections).

While x86 LTO enablement is done[1], it depends on some objtool
clean-ups[2], though it appears those actually have been in linux-next
(via tip/objtool/core), so it's possible that if that tree lands, I'll
send a "part 2" pull request for LTO that includes x86 support (though
I guess that depends on the length of the merge window).

For merge log posterity, and as detailed in commit dc5723b02e52 ("kbuild:
add support for Clang LTO"), here is the lt;dr to do an LTO build:

	make LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1 defconfig
	scripts/config -e LTO_CLANG_THIN
	make LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1

(To do a cross-compile of arm64, add "CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu-"
and "ARCH=arm64" to the "make" command lines.)

Thanks!

-Kees
