[PATCH] Documentation/llvm: Add a note about prebuilt kernel.org toolchains

[Nathan Chancellor]

I recently started uploading prebuilt stable versions of LLVM to
kernel.org, which should make building the kernel with LLVM more
accessible to maintainers and developers. Link them in the LLVM
documentation to make this more visible.

Thanks for the quick review! I will send a v2 once others have had a
chance to chime in (unless the person applying this does not mind fixing
it up at that time).
