Pull more clang LTO updates from Kees Cook:
 "Clang LTO x86 enablement.

  Full disclosure: while this has _not_ been in linux-next (since it
  initially looked like the objtool dependencies weren't going to make
  v5.12), it has been under daily build and runtime testing by Sami for
  quite some time. These x86 portions have been discussed on lkml, with
  Peter, Josh, and others helping nail things down.

  The bulk of the changes are to get objtool working happily. The rest
  of the x86 enablement is very small.

  Summary:

   - Generate __mcount_loc in objtool (Peter Zijlstra)

   - Support running objtool against vmlinux.o (Sami Tolvanen)

   - Clang LTO enablement for x86 (Sami Tolvanen)"

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.
