Nathan Chancellor 22235ef34a MIPS: VDSO: Allow ld.lld to link the VDSO
Currently, when linking with ld.lld, this warning pops up:

    arch/mips/vdso/Makefile:70: MIPS VDSO requires binutils >= 2.25

CONFIG_LD_VERSION is set with scripts/ld-version.sh, which is specific
to GNU ld. It returns 0 for ld.lld so CONFIG_MIPS_LD_CAN_LINK_VDSO does
not set.

ld.lld has a completely different versioning scheme (as it follows
LLVM's versioning) and it does not have the issue mentioned in the
comment block so it should be allowed to link the VDSO.

With this patch, the VDSO successfully links and shows P_MIPS_PC32 in
vgettimeofday.o.

$ llvm-objdump -Dr arch/mips/vdso/vgettimeofday.o | grep R_MIPS_PC32
			00000024:  R_MIPS_PC32	_start
			000000b0:  R_MIPS_PC32	_start
			000002bc:  R_MIPS_PC32	_start
			0000036c:  R_MIPS_PC32	_start
			00000468:  R_MIPS_PC32	_start

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.
