commit 2cbd1cc3dcd3e84be1fc1987da24b190ddf24a70 upstream.
The integrated assembler of Clang 10 and earlier do not allow to access
the VFP registers through the coprocessor load/store instructions:
arch/arm/vfp/vfpmodule.c:342:2: error: invalid operand for instruction
fmxr(FPEXC, fpexc & ~(FPEXC_EX|FPEXC_DEX|FPEXC_FP2V|FPEXC_VV|FPEXC_TRAP_MASK));
^
arch/arm/vfp/vfpinstr.h:79:6: note: expanded from macro 'fmxr'
asm("mcr p10, 7, %0, " vfpreg(_vfp_) ", cr0, 0 @ fmxr " #_vfp_ ", %0"
^
<inline asm>:1:6: note: instantiated into assembly here
mcr p10, 7, r0, cr8, cr0, 0 @ fmxr FPEXC, r0
^
This has been addressed with Clang 11 [0]. However, to support earlier
versions of Clang and for better readability use of VFP assembler
mnemonics still is preferred.
Ideally we would replace this code with the unified assembler language
mnemonics vmrs/vmsr on call sites along with .fpu assembler directives.
The GNU assembler supports the .fpu directive at least since 2.17 (when
documentation has been added). Since Linux requires binutils 2.21 it is
safe to use .fpu directive. However, binutils does not allow to use
FPINST or FPINST2 as an argument to vmrs/vmsr instructions up to
binutils 2.24 (see binutils commit 16d02dc907c5):
arch/arm/vfp/vfphw.S: Assembler messages:
arch/arm/vfp/vfphw.S:162: Error: operand 0 must be FPSID or FPSCR pr FPEXC -- `vmsr FPINST,r6'
arch/arm/vfp/vfphw.S:165: Error: operand 0 must be FPSID or FPSCR pr FPEXC -- `vmsr FPINST2,r8'
arch/arm/vfp/vfphw.S:235: Error: operand 1 must be a VFP extension System Register -- `vmrs r3,FPINST'
arch/arm/vfp/vfphw.S:238: Error: operand 1 must be a VFP extension System Register -- `vmrs r12,FPINST2'
Use as-instr in Kconfig to check if FPINST/FPINST2 can be used. If they
can be used make use of .fpu directives and UAL VFP mnemonics for
register access.
This allows to build vfpmodule.c with Clang and its integrated assembler.

[nd: Adjusted hunk from arch/arm/Kconfig due to missing
commit 8a90a3228b6a ("arm: Unplug KVM from the build system").
Replace __ACCESS_VFP with fmrx/fmxr for arch/arm/kvm/switch.c.
CONFIG_KVM was removed in
commit 541ad0150ca4 ("arm: Remove 32bit KVM host support") in
v5.7.1. CONFIG_KVM is not enabled as part of allmodconfig or
alldefconfig, but axm55xx_defconfig explicitly does enable it.
Adjusted arch/arm/vfp/vfphw.S due to conflict with
commit a47b395d44 ("ARM: 9030/1: entry: omit FP emulation for UND
exceptions taken in kernel mode").]
