Nathan Chancellor f6a2c2b2de x86/Kconfig: Only allow CONFIG_X86_KERNEL_IBT with ld.lld >= 14.0.0
With CONFIG_X86_KERNEL_IBT=y and a version of ld.lld prior to 14.0.0,
there are numerous objtool warnings along the lines of:

  warning: objtool: .plt+0x6: indirect jump found in RETPOLINE build

This is a known issue that has been resolved in ld.lld 14.0.0. Prevent
CONFIG_X86_KERNEL_IBT from being selectable when using one of these
problematic ld.lld versions.

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.
