commit b8a9092330da2030496ff357272f342eb970d51b upstream.

Clang's integrated assembler produces the warning for assembly files:

warning: DWARF2 only supports one section per compilation unit

If -Wa,-gdwarf-* is unspecified, then debug info is not emitted for
assembly sources (it is still emitted for C sources). This will be
re-enabled for newer DWARF versions in a follow up patch.

Enables defconfig+CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO to build cleanly with
LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1 for x86_64 and arm64.
