Re: [PATCH] powerpc: Don't add -mabi= flags when building with Clang

Hi Nathan,
When building pseries_defconfig, building vdso32 errors out:

  error: unknown target ABI 'elfv1'

Commit 4dc831aa8813 ("powerpc: Fix compiling a BE kernel with a
powerpc64le toolchain") added these flags to fix building GCC but
clang is multitargeted and does not need these flags. The ABI is
properly set based on the target triple, which is derived from
CROSS_COMPILE.

https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/llvmorg-9.0.0-rc2/clang/lib/Driver/ToolChains/Clang.cpp#L1782-L1804

-mcall-aixdesc is not an implemented flag in clang so it can be
safely excluded as well, see commit 238abecde8ad ("powerpc: Don't
use gcc specific options on clang").
This all looks good to me, thanks for picking it up, and sorry I hadn't
got around to it!

The makefile is a bit messy and there are a few ways it could probably
be reorganised to reduce ifdefs. But I don't think this is the right
place to do that. With that in mind,

pseries_defconfig successfully builds after this patch and
powernv_defconfig and ppc44x_defconfig don't regress.
