[PATCH 4.19 100/148] raid6/ppc: Fix build for clang
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Jan 11 2019 - 09:52:07 EST
4.19-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Joel Stanley <joel@xxxxxxxxx>
commit e213574a449f7a57d4202c1869bbc7680b6b5521 upstream.
We cannot build these files with clang as it does not allow altivec
instructions in assembly when -msoft-float is passed.

This is a workaround until the issue is resolved in clang.
