[PATCH 0/2] Harden clang against unknown flag options

Hi all,

This series cleans up an issue that was noticed by the kernel test robot
where flags that clang does not implement support for are
unconditionally added to the command line, which causes all subsequent
calls to cc-{disable-warning,option} to fail, meaning developers are
flooded with unnecessary and pointless warnings.

I hope the patches in and of themselves are reasonable and
non-controversial. This is based on Masahiro's kbuild tree as there was
a fairly large refactor around where clang's flags were added so I
figured it would be best to go there with an x86 ack since the first
patch does not depend on anything in -tip.

Cheers,
Nathan

x86: Do not add -falign flags unconditionally for clang
kbuild: Add -Werror=ignored-optimization-argument to CLANG_FLAGS
