Merge tag 'kbuild-v5.7-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/masahiroy/linux-kbuild

Pull more Kbuild updates from Masahiro Yamada:

 - raise minimum supported binutils version to 2.23

 - remove old CONFIG_AS_* macros that we know binutils >= 2.23 supports

 - move remaining CONFIG_AS_* tests to Kconfig from Makefile

 - enable -Wtautological-compare warnings to catch more issues

 - do not support GCC plugins for GCC <= 4.7

 - fix various breakages of 'make xconfig'

 - include the linker version used for linking the kernel into
   LINUX_COMPILER, which is used for the banner, and also exposed to
   /proc/version

 - link lib-y objects to vmlinux forcibly when CONFIG_MODULES=y, which
   allows us to remove the lib-ksyms.o workaround, and to solve the last
   known issue of the LLVM linker

 - add dummy tools in scripts/dummy-tools/ to enable all compiler tests
   in Kconfig, which will be useful for distro maintainers

 - support the single switch, LLVM=1 to use Clang and all LLVM utilities
   instead of GCC and Binutils.

 - support LLVM_IAS=1 to enable the integrated assembler, which is still
   experimental
