Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/vdso: Drop -mstack-protector-guard flags in 32-bit
 files with clang

Under certain conditions, the 64-bit '-mstack-protector-guard' flags may
end up in the 32-bit vDSO flags, resulting in build failures due to the
structure of clang's argument parsing of the stack protector options,
which validates the arguments of the stack protector guard flags
unconditionally in the frontend, choking on the 64-bit values when
targeting 32-bit:

  clang: error: invalid value 'r13' in 'mstack-protector-guard-reg=', expected one of: r2
  clang: error: invalid value 'r13' in 'mstack-protector-guard-reg=', expected one of: r2
  make[3]: *** [arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/Makefile:85: arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/vgettimeofday-32.o] Error 1
  make[3]: *** [arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/Makefile:87: arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/vgetrandom-32.o] Error 1

Remove these flags by adding them to the CC32FLAGSREMOVE variable, which
already handles situations similar to this. Additionally, reformat and
align a comment better for the expanding CONFIG_CC_IS_CLANG block.
