A change in clang 13 results in the __lwsync macro being defined as
__builtin_ppc_lwsync, which emits 'lwsync' or 'msync' depending on what
the target supports. This breaks the build because of -Werror in
arch/powerpc, along with thousands of warnings:

Undefine this macro so that the runtime patching introduced by
commit 2d1b2027626d ("powerpc: Fixup lwsync at runtime") continues to
work properly with clang and the build no longer breaks.

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.
