As for scripts/ mess,
perhaps we can remove scripts/gcc-goto.sh?



http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=48637
seems like a bug for GCC 4.x at least...


If we can revert the following two commits:
f3c003f72dfb2497056bcbb864885837a1968ed5
a9468f30b5eac6957c86aea97954553bfb7c1f18

... the asm-goto test will become simple enough
to fit into init/Kconfig.


If we know all GCC 5.1+ and Clang 11+ support asm-goto,
we can remove CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO, but I am not so sure.
