powerpc/vdso: Drop -mstack-protector-guard flags in 32-bit files with clang

powerpc/vdso: Drop -mstack-protector-guard flags in 32-bit files with clang
[ Upstream commit d677ce521334d8f1f327cafc8b1b7854b0833158 ]
Under certain conditions, the 64-bit '-mstack-protector-guard' flags may
end up in the 32-bit vDSO flags, resulting in build failures due to the
structure of clang's argument parsing of the stack protector options,
which validates the arguments of the stack protector guard flags
unconditionally in the frontend, choking on the 64-bit values when
targeting 32-bit:
clang: error: invalid value 'r13' in 'mstack-protector-guard-reg=', expected one of: r2
clang: error: invalid value 'r13' in 'mstack-protector-guard-reg=', expected one of: r2
make[3]: *** [arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/Makefile:85: arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/vgettimeofday-32.o] Error 1
make[3]: *** [arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/Makefile:87: arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/vgetrandom-32.o] Error 1
Remove these flags by adding them to the CC32FLAGSREMOVE variable, which
already handles situations similar to this. Additionally, reformat and
align a comment better for the expanding CONFIG_CC_IS_CLANG block.

powerpc/vdso: Filter clang's auto var init zero enabler when linking
After commit 8d9acfce3332 ("kbuild: Stop using '-Qunused-arguments' with

powerpc/vdso: Filter clang's auto var init zero enabler when linking
After commit 8d9acfce3332 ("kbuild: Stop using '-Qunused-arguments' with
clang"), the PowerPC vDSO shows the following error with clang-13 and
older when CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_ZERO is enabled:
clang: error: argument unused during compilation: '-enable-trivial-auto-var-init-zero-knowing-it-will-be-removed-from-clang' [-Werror,-Wunused-command-line-argument]
clang-14 added a change to make sure this flag never triggers
-Wunused-command-line-argument, so it is fixed with newer releases. For
older releases that the kernel still supports building with, just filter
out this flag, as has been done for other flags.

powerpc/vdso: Remove an unsupported flag from vgettimeofday-32.o with clang
When clang's -Qunused-arguments is dropped from KBUILD_CPPFLAGS, it
warns:
clang-16: error: argument unused during compilation: '-fno-stack-clash-protection' [-Werror,-Wunused-command-line-argument]
This warning happens because vgettimeofday-32.c gets its base CFLAGS
from the main kernel, which may contain flags that are only supported on
a 64-bit target but not a 32-bit one, which is the case here.
-fstack-clash-protection and its negation are only suppported by the
64-bit powerpc target but that flag is included in an invocation for a
32-bit powerpc target, so clang points out that while the flag is one
that it recognizes, it is not actually used by this compiler job.
To eliminate the warning, remove -fno-stack-clash-protection from
vgettimeofday-32.c's CFLAGS when using clang, as has been done for other
flags previously.

powerpc/vdso: Improve linker flags
When clang's -Qunused-arguments is dropped from KBUILD_CPPFLAGS, there
are several warnings in the PowerPC vDSO:
clang-16: error: -Wl,-soname=linux-vdso32.so.1: 'linker' input unused [-Werror,-Wunused-command-line-argument]

clang-16: error: argument unused during compilation: '-Wa,-maltivec' [-Werror,-Wunused-command-line-argument]
The first group of warnings point out that linker flags were being added
to all invocations of $(CC), even though they will only be used during
the final vDSO link. Move those flags to ldflags-y.
The second group of warnings are compiler or assembler flags that will
be unused during linking. Filter them out from KBUILD_CFLAGS so that
they are not used during linking.
Additionally, '-z noexecstack' was added directly to the ld_and_check
rule in commit 1d53c0192b15 ("powerpc/vdso: link with -z noexecstack")
but now that there is a common ldflags variable, it can be moved there.

powerpc/vdso: Link with ld.lld when requested
The PowerPC vDSO uses $(CC) to link, which differs from the rest of the
kernel, which uses $(LD) directly. As a result, the default linker of
the compiler is used, which may differ from the linker requested by the
builder. For example:
$ make ARCH=powerpc LLVM=1 mrproper defconfig arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/
...
$ llvm-readelf -p .comment arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/vdso{32,64}.so.dbg

LLVM=1 sets LD=ld.lld but ld.lld is not used to link the vDSO; GNU ld is
because "ld" is the default linker for clang on most Linux platforms.
This is a problem for Clang's Link Time Optimization as implemented in
the kernel because use of GNU ld with LTO requires the LLVMgold plugin,
which is not technically supported for ld.bfd per
https://llvm.org/docs/GoldPlugin.html. Furthermore, if LLVMgold.so is
missing from a user's system, the build will fail, even though LTO as it
is implemented in the kernel requires ld.lld to avoid this dependency in
the first place.
Ultimately, the PowerPC vDSO should be converted to compiling and
linking with $(CC) and $(LD) respectively but there were issues last
time this was tried, potentially due to older but supported tool
versions. To avoid regressing GCC + binutils, use the compiler option
'-fuse-ld', which tells the compiler which linker to use when it is
invoked as both the compiler and linker. Use '-fuse-ld=lld' when
LD=ld.lld has been specified (CONFIG_LD_IS_LLD) so that the vDSO is
linked with the same linker as the rest of the kernel.

LD can be a full path to ld.lld, which will not be handled properly by
'-fuse-ld=lld' if the full path to ld.lld is outside of the compiler's
search path. '-fuse-ld' can take a path to the linker but it is
deprecated in clang 12.0.0; '--ld-path' is preferred for this scenario.
Use '--ld-path' if it is supported, as it will handle a full path or
just 'ld.lld' properly. See the LLVM commit below for the full details
of '--ld-path'.
