[PATCH] ARM: disable ARMv6 for Clang older than 8.0

From: Stefan Agner
Date: Sun Sep 30 2018 - 18:22:48 EST


The kernel passes the ArmV6K architecture to the compiler when
using the multi platform selection and enabling ARMv6. Clang
older than version 8.0 emit assembly with an non-existing CPU,
which then makes the assembler fail. Prevent the user from
selecting ARMv6 when using Clang before 8.0.
