Nathan reports that the build fails when using clang and LTO:

... the problem being that when LTO is enabled, <asm/rwonce.h> includes
<asm/alternative-macros.h>, and causes a circular include dependency
through <linux/bug.h>. This manifests as BUILD_BUG_ON() not being
defined when used within <asm/alternative-macros.h>.
This patch avoids the problem and simplifies the include dependencies by
using compiletime_assert() instead of BUILD_BUG_ON().

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.
