Nathan Chancellor 7861640aac x86/build: Raise the minimum LLVM version to 15.0.0
In a similar vein as to this pending commit in the x86/asm tree:

  a3e8fe814a ("x86/build: Raise the minimum GCC version to 8.1")

... bump the minimum supported version of LLVM for building x86 kernels
to 15.0.0, as that is the first version that has support for
'-mstack-protector-guard-symbol', which is used unconditionally after:

  80d47defdd ("x86/stackprotector/64: Convert to normal per-CPU variable"):

Older Clang versions will fail the build with:

  clang-14: error: unknown argument: '-mstack-protector-guard-symbol=__ref_stack_chk_guard'

Fixes: 80d47defdd ("x86/stackprotector/64: Convert to normal per-CPU variable")

README

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 reStructuredText 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.
