Building an arm64 defconfig with clang's integrated assembler, this error
occurs:
<instantiation>:2:2: error: unrecognized instruction mnemonic
_ASM_EXTABLE 9999b, 9f
^
arch/arm64/mm/cache.S:50:1: note: while in macro instantiation
user_alt 9f, "dc cvau, x4", "dc civac, x4", 0
^
While GNU as seems fine with case-sensitive macro instantiations, clang
doesn't, so use the actual macro name (_asm_extable) as in the rest of
the file.
Also checked that the generated assembly matches the GCC output.

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.
