arm64: unify asm-arch manipulation
Assemblers will reject instructions not supported by a target
architecture version, and so we must explicitly tell the assembler the
latest architecture version for which we want to assemble instructions
from.
We've added a few AS_HAS_ARMV8_<N> definitions for this, in addition to
an inconsistently named AS_HAS_PAC definition, from which arm64's
top-level Makefile determines the architecture version that we intend to
target, and generates the `asm-arch` variable.
To make this a bit clearer and easier to maintain, this patch reworks
the Makefile to determine asm-arch in a single if-else-endif chain.
AS_HAS_PAC, which is defined when the assembler supports
`-march=armv8.3-a`, is renamed to AS_HAS_ARMV8_3.
As the logic for armv8.3-a is lifted out of the block handling pointer
authentication, `asm-arch` may now be set to armv8.3-a regardless of
whether support for pointer authentication is selected. This means that
it will be possible to assemble armv8.3-a instructions even if we didn't
intend to, but this is consistent with our handling of other
architecture versions, and the compiler won't generate armv8.3-a
instructions regardless.
For the moment there's no need for an CONFIG_AS_HAS_ARMV8_1, as the code
for LSE atomics and LDAPR use individual `.arch_extension` entries and
do not require the baseline asm arch to be bumped to armv8.1-a. The
other armv8.1-a features (e.g. PAN) do not require assembler support.
There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.
