Subject[PATCH] arm64: fix clang integrated assembler build
Date
clang and gas seem to interpret the symbols in memmove.S and
memset.S differently, such that clang does not make them
'weak' as expected, which leads to a linker error, with both
ld.bfd and ld.lld:

ld.lld: error: duplicate symbol: memmove
>>> defined at common.c
>>> kasan/common.o:(memmove) in archive mm/built-in.a
>>> defined at memmove.o:(__memmove) in archive arch/arm64/lib/lib.a

ld.lld: error: duplicate symbol: memset
>>> defined at common.c
>>> kasan/common.o:(memset) in archive mm/built-in.a
>>> defined at memset.o:(__memset) in archive arch/arm64/lib/lib.a

Copy the exact way these are written in memcpy_64.S, which does
not have the same problem.

I don't know why this makes a difference, and it would be good
to have someone with a better understanding of assembler internals
review it.

It might be either a bug in the kernel or a bug in the assembler,
no idea which one. My patch makes it work with all versions of
clang and gcc, which is probably helpful even if it's a workaround
for a clang bug.
