It is not sufficient to check if a toolchain supports a particular
extension without checking if the linker supports that extension
too. For example, Clang 15 supports Zihintpause but GNU bintutils
2.35.2 does not, leading build errors like so:
riscv64-linux-gnu-ld: -march=rv64i2p0_m2p0_a2p0_c2p0_zihintpause2p0: Invalid or unknown z ISA extension: 'zihintpause'
Add a TOOLCHAIN_HAS_ZIHINTPAUSE which checks if each of the compiler,
assembler and linker support the extension. Replace the ifdef in the
vdso with one depending on this new symbol.
Fixes: 8eb060e101 ("arch/riscv: add Zihintpause support")

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.
