Commit a9d57ef15cbe ("x86/retpolines: Disable switch jump tables when retpolines are enabled") added -fno-jump-tables to workaround a GCC issue while deliberately avoiding adding this flag when CONFIG_CC_IS_CLANG is set, which is defined by the kconfig system when CC=clang is provided. However, this symbol was added in 4.18 in commit 469cb7376c06 ("kconfig: add CC_IS_CLANG and CLANG_VERSION") so it is always undefined in 4.14, meaning -fno-jump-tables gets added when using Clang. Fix this up by using the equivalent $(cc-name) comparison, which matches what upstream did until commit 076f421da5d4 ("kbuild: replace cc-name test with CONFIG_CC_IS_CLANG").

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
