[PATCH] kbuild: Add ability to test Clang's integrated assembler

From: Nathan Chancellor
Date: Thu Jun 27 2019 - 15:15:20 EST


There are some people interested in experimenting with Clang's
integrated assembler. To make it easy to do so without source
modification, allow the user to specify 'AS=clang' as part of the
make command to avoid adding '-no-integrated-as' to the {A,C}FLAGS.
