Commit Message

Commit b33fff07e3e3 ("x86, build: allow LTO to be selected") added a
couple of '-plugin-opt=' flags to KBUILD_LDFLAGS because the code model
and stack alignment are not stored in LLVM bitcode. However, these flags
were added to KBUILD_LDFLAGS prior to the emulation flag assignment,
which uses ':=', so they were overwritten and never added to $(LD)
invocations. The absence of these flags caused misalignment issues in
the AMDGPU driver when compiling with CONFIG_LTO_CLANG, resulting in
general protection faults.

Shuffle the assignment below the initial one so that the flags are
properly passed along and all of the linker flags stay together.

At the same time, avoid any future issues with clobbering flags by
changing the emulation flag assignment to '+=' since KBUILD_LDFLAGS is
already defined with ':=' in the main Makefile before being exported for
modification here as a result of commit ce99d0bf312d ("kbuild: clear
LDFLAGS in the top Makefile").

Thanks for the patch file.  I will need to be more wary of `:=`
operator in kbuild changes in the future.

Ideally, we should encode these two flags in LLVM's IR so that we
don't need to respecify them when restarting optimizations from the
linker during LTO. I've filed
https://github.com/ClangBuiltLinux/linux/issues/1377 to follow up on
that idea.

(I've slightly adjusted the title.)

Applied to for-next/clang/features, thanks!

Ingo picked this up in x86/urgent so you should not need to carry it.
