Nick Desaulniers a2faac3986 ARM: 9263/1: use .arch directives instead of assembler command line flags
Similar to commit a6c30873ee ("ARM: 8989/1: use .fpu assembler
directives instead of assembler arguments").

GCC and GNU binutils support setting the "sub arch" via -march=,
-Wa,-march, target function attribute, and .arch assembler directive.

Clang was missing support for -Wa,-march=, but this was implemented in
clang-13.

The behavior of both GCC and Clang is to
prefer -Wa,-march= over -march= for assembler and assembler-with-cpp
sources, but Clang will warn about the -march= being unused.

clang: warning: argument unused during compilation: '-march=armv6k'
[-Wunused-command-line-argument]

Since most assembler is non-conditionally assembled with one sub arch
(modulo arch/arm/delay-loop.S which conditionally is assembled as armv4
based on CONFIG_ARCH_RPC, and arch/arm/mach-at91/pm-suspend.S which is
conditionally assembled as armv7-a based on CONFIG_CPU_V7), prefer the
.arch assembler directive.

Add a few more instances found in compile testing as found by Arnd and
Nathan.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
