Pull more Kbuild updates from Masahiro Yamada:

 - Convert sh and sparc to use generic shell scripts to generate the
   syscall headers

 - refactor .gitignore files

 - Update kernel/config_data.gz only when the content of the .config
   is really changed, which avoids the unneeded re-link of vmlinux

 - suppress unused-but-set-variable warnings by default for Clang
   as well

 - fix locale setting LANG=C to LC_ALL=C

 - improve 'make distclean'

 - always keep intermediate objects from scripts/link-vmlinux.sh

 - move IF_ENABLED out of &lt;linux/kconfig.h&gt; to make it self-contained

 - misc cleanups

Pull RISC-V updates from Palmer Dabbelt:

 - Support for the memtest= kernel command-line argument.

 - Support for building the kernel with FORTIFY_SOURCE.

 - Support for generic clockevent broadcasts.

 - Support for the buildtar build target.

 - Some build system cleanups to pass more LLVM-friendly arguments.

 - Support for kprobes.

 - A rearranged kernel memory map, the first part of supporting sv48
   systems.

 - Improvements to kexec, along with support for kdump and crash

   dev board.

... along with a bunch of cleanups.  There are already a handful of fixes
on the list so there will likely be a part 2.

LANG gives a weak default to each LC_* in case it is not explicitly
defined. LC_ALL, if set, overrides all other LC_* variables.

  LANG  &lt;  LC_CTYPE, LC_COLLATE, LC_MONETARY, LC_NUMERIC, ...  &lt;  LC_ALL

This is why documentation such as [1] suggests to set LC_ALL in build
scripts to get the deterministic result.

LANG=C is not strong enough to override LC_* that may be set by end
users.

<title>riscv: Workaround mcount name prior to clang-13</title>

Prior to clang 13.0.0, the RISC-V name for the mcount symbol was
"mcount", which differs from the GCC version of "_mcount", which results
in the following errors:

riscv64-linux-gnu-ld: init/main.o: in function `__traceiter_initcall_level':
main.c:(.text+0xe): undefined reference to `mcount'
riscv64-linux-gnu-ld: init/main.o: in function `__traceiter_initcall_start':
main.c:(.text+0x4e): undefined reference to `mcount'
riscv64-linux-gnu-ld: init/main.o: in function `__traceiter_initcall_finish':
main.c:(.text+0x92): undefined reference to `mcount'
riscv64-linux-gnu-ld: init/main.o: in function `.LBB32_28':
main.c:(.text+0x30c): undefined reference to `mcount'
riscv64-linux-gnu-ld: init/main.o: in function `free_initmem':
main.c:(.text+0x54c): undefined reference to `mcount'

This has been corrected in https://reviews.llvm.org/D98881 but the
minimum supported clang version is 10.0.1. To avoid build errors and to
gain a working function tracer, adjust the name of the mcount symbol for
older versions of clang in mount.S and recordmcount.pl.

Clang can generate R_RISCV_CALL_PLT relocations to _mcount:

$ llvm-objdump -dr build/riscv/init/main.o | rg mcount
                000000000000000e:  R_RISCV_CALL_PLT     _mcount
                000000000000004e:  R_RISCV_CALL_PLT     _mcount

After this, the __start_mcount_loc section is properly generated and
function tracing still works.

By default, emacs indents Perl files with 4 spaces, but will use tabs
where 8 spaces are used. Add a vim command of softtabstop=4, to make vim
behave the same. This should remove the issue of developers using vim
having causing different indentation.

Emacs by default will have perl files have 4 space indents, where 8 spaces
are represented with a single tab. There are some places in
recordmcount.pl that has 8 spaces where a tab should be used. Replace them
to make the file consistent.

No functional changes.

The kernel test robot reported the following issue:

  sh4-linux-ld: cannot find drivers/soc/litex/.tmp_gl_litex_soc_ctrl.o: No such file or directory
  sh4-linux-objcopy: 'drivers/soc/litex/.tmp_mx_litex_soc_ctrl.o': No such file

The problem is that the format of input file is elf32-shbig-linux, but
sh4-linux-objcopy wants to output a file which format is elf32-sh-linux:

  $ sh4-linux-objdump -d drivers/soc/litex/litex_soc_ctrl.o | grep format
  drivers/soc/litex/litex_soc_ctrl.o:     file format elf32-shbig-linux

  sh4-linux-ld: cannot find drivers/soc/litex/.tmp_gl_litex_soc_ctrl.o: No such file or directory
  sh4-linux-objcopy: 'drivers/soc/litex/.tmp_mx_litex_soc_ctrl.o': No such file

The problem is that the format of input file is elf32-shbig-linux, but
sh4-linux-objcopy wants to output a file which format is elf32-sh-linux:

  $ sh4-linux-objdump -d drivers/soc/litex/litex_soc_ctrl.o | grep format
  drivers/soc/litex/litex_soc_ctrl.o:     file format elf32-shbig-linux

Currently the kernel minimal compiler requirement is gcc 4.9 or
clang 10.0.1.
* gcc -mhotpatch option is supported since 4.8.
* A combination of -pg -mrecord-mcount -mnop-mcount -mfentry flags is
supported since gcc 9 and since clang 10.

Drop support for old -pg function prologues. Which leaves binary
compatible -mhotpatch / -mnop-mcount -mfentry prologues in a form:
	brcl	0,0
Which are also do not require initial nop optimization / conversion and
presence of _mcount symbol.
