arm64 kvm built with clang doesn't boot

Hi!
I've recently tried to boot clang built kernel on real hardware
(Odroid C2 board) instead of using a VM. The issue that I stumbled
upon is that arm64 kvm built with clang doesn't boot.
Adding -fno-jump-tables compiler flag to arch/arm64/kvm/* helps. There
was a patch some time ago that did exactly that
(https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10060381/), but it wasn't accepted
AFAICT (see the discussion on that thread).
What would be the best way to get this fixed?
I've also had to disable CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL to get the kernel boot
(even without kvm enabled), but that might be a different (though
related) issue.
Thanks!
