as-instr uses KBUILD_AFLAGS, but as-option uses KBUILD_CFLAGS. This can
cause as-option to fail unexpectedly when CONFIG_WERROR is set, because
clang will emit -Werror,-Wunused-command-line-argument for various -m
and -f flags in KBUILD_CFLAGS for assembler sources.
Callers of as-option and as-instr should be adding flags to
KBUILD_AFLAGS / aflags-y, not KBUILD_CFLAGS / cflags-y. Use
KBUILD_AFLAGS in all macros to clear up the initial problem.
Unfortunately, -Wunused-command-line-argument can still be triggered
with clang by the presence of warning flags or macro definitions because
'-x assembler' is used, instead of '-x assembler-with-cpp', which will
consume these flags. Switch to '-x assembler-with-cpp' in places where
'-x assembler' is used, as the compiler is always used as the driver for
out of line assembler sources in the kernel.
Finally, add -Werror to these macros so that they behave consistently
whether or not CONFIG_WERROR is set.
[nathan: Reworded and expanded on problems in commit message
Use '-x assembler-with-cpp' in a couple more places]

It has been brought up a few times in various code reviews that clang
3.5 introduced -f{,no-}integrated-as as the preferred way to enable and
disable the integrated assembler, mentioning that -{no-,}integrated-as
are now considered legacy flags.
Switch the kernel over to using those variants in case there is ever a
time where clang decides to remove the non-'f' variants of the flag.
Also, fix a typo in a comment ("intergrated" -> "integrated").

Documentation/process/changes.rst defines the minimum assembler version
(binutils version), but we have never checked it in the build time.
Kbuild never invokes 'as' directly because all assembly files in the
kernel tree are *.S, hence must be preprocessed. I do not expect
raw assembly source files (*.s) would be added to the kernel tree.
Therefore, we always use $(CC) as the assembler driver, and commit
aa824e0c96 ("kbuild: remove AS variable") removed 'AS'. However,
we are still interested in the version of the assembler acting behind.
As usual, the --version option prints the version string.
$ as --version | head -n 1
GNU assembler (GNU Binutils for Ubuntu) 2.35.1
But, we do not have $(AS). So, we can add the -Wa prefix so that
$(CC) passes --version down to the backing assembler.
$ gcc -Wa,--version | head -n 1
gcc: fatal error: no input files
compilation terminated.
OK, we need to input something to satisfy gcc.
$ gcc -Wa,--version -c -x assembler /dev/null -o /dev/null | head -n 1
GNU assembler (GNU Binutils for Ubuntu) 2.35.1
The combination of Clang and GNU assembler works in the same way:
$ clang -no-integrated-as -Wa,--version -c -x assembler /dev/null -o /dev/null | head -n 1
GNU assembler (GNU Binutils for Ubuntu) 2.35.1
Clang with the integrated assembler fails like this:
$ clang -integrated-as -Wa,--version -c -x assembler /dev/null -o /dev/null | head -n 1
clang: error: unsupported argument '--version' to option 'Wa,'
For the last case, checking the error message is fragile. If the
proposal for -Wa,--version support [1] is accepted, this may not be
even an error in the future.
One easy way is to check if -integrated-as is present in the passed
arguments. We did not pass -integrated-as to CLANG_FLAGS before, but
we can make it explicit.
Nathan pointed out -integrated-as is the default for all of the
architectures/targets that the kernel cares about, but it goes
along with "explicit is better than implicit" policy. [2]
With all this in my mind, I implemented scripts/as-version.sh to
check the assembler version in Kconfig time.
$ scripts/as-version.sh gcc
GNU 23501
$ scripts/as-version.sh clang -no-integrated-as
GNU 23501
$ scripts/as-version.sh clang -integrated-as
LLVM 0
