Commit Message

  When both -march= and -Wa,-march= are specified for assembler or
assembler-with-cpp sources, GCC and Clang will prefer the -Wa,-march=
value but Clang will warn that -march= is unused.

warning: argument unused during compilation: '-march=armv6k'
[-Wunused-command-line-argument]

This is the top group of warnings we observe when using clang to
assemble the kernel via `ARCH=arm make LLVM=1`.

Split the arch-y make variable into two, so that -march= flags only get
passed to the compiler, not the assembler. -D flags are added to
KBUILD_CPPFLAGS which is used for both C and assembler-with-cpp sources.

Clang is trying to warn that it doesn't support different values for
-march= and -Wa,-march= (like GCC does, but the kernel doesn't need this)
though the value of the preprocessor define __thumb2__ is based on
-march=. Make sure to re-set __thumb2__ via -D flag for assembler
sources now that we're no longer passing -march= to the assembler. Set
it to a different value than the preprocessor would for -march= in case
-march= gets accidentally re-added to KBUILD_AFLAGS in the future.
Thanks to Ard and Nathan for this suggestion.

This passed through my build matrix on top of commit dca45efbe3c8
("Merge tag 'sound-fix-6.1-rc1' of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound") and I saw no
additional warnings/errors:
