clang 10 introduces -mpacked-stack compiler option implementation. At the same time currently it does not support a combination of -mpacked-stack and -mbackchain. This leads to the following build error: clang: error: unsupported option '-mpacked-stack with -mbackchain' for target 's390x-ibm-linux' If/when clang adds support for a combination of -mpacked-stack and -mbackchain it would also require -msoft-float (like gcc does). According to Ulrich Weigand "stack slot assigned to the kernel backchain overlaps the stack slot assigned to the FPR varargs (both are required to be placed immediately after the saved r15 slot if present)." Extend -mpacked-stack compiler option support check to include all 3 options -mpacked-stack -mbackchain -msoft-float which must present to support -mpacked-stack with -mbackchain.

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.
