Well, how do you even build CPU_SRSO with clang?

config CPU_SRSO
        bool "Mitigate speculative RAS overflow on AMD"
        depends on CPU_SUP_AMD && X86_64 && RETHUNK
					    ^^^^^^^

config RETHUNK
        bool "Enable return-thunks"
        depends on RETPOLINE && CC_HAS_RETURN_THUNK
				^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

config CC_HAS_RETURN_THUNK
        def_bool $(cc-option,-mfunction-return=thunk-extern)

$ clang -mfunction-return=thunk-extern
clang: error: unknown argument: '-mfunction-return=thunk-extern'
clang: error: no input files

$ clang --version
Debian clang version 14.0.6
Target: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir: /usr/bin

Hmmm.
