[PATCH] arm64: drop CROSS_COMPILE for LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1

From: Nick Desaulniers
Date: Thu Jul 01 2021 - 19:59:43 EST


We get constant feedback that the command line invocation of make is too
long. CROSS_COMPILE is helpful when a toolchain has a prefix of the
target triple, or is an absolute path outside of $PATH, but it's mostly
redundant for a given ARCH.

If CROSS_COMPILE is not set, simply set --target=aarch64-linux for
CLANG_FLAGS, KBUILD_CFLAGS, and KBUILD_AFLAGS.

Previously, we'd cross compile via:
$ ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linxu-gnu make LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1
Now:
$ ARCH=arm64 make LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1

We can drop gnu from the triple, but dropping linux from the triple
produces different .config files for the above invocations for the
defconfig target.
