Thank you Arvind for the series. I did quick build+boot tests of x86
defconfigs with `make LLVM=1` which look good.

Further, I was able to build+boot i386 defconfigs with `make LLVM=1`
with your series, Mr. Rothwell's proposed fixed for today's linux-next
breakage: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-next/20200717213127.3bd426e1@canb.auug.org.au/,
and Mr. Gerst's series for i386+clang support. So that looks like
with this series, we can now link i386 defconfig with LLD! Nice!
