See below for the patch I am using locally to work around this.
That patch is probably wrong, so I have not submitted it yet, but it
gives you a clean build ;-)

Subject: [PATCH] x86: percpu: fix clang 32-bit build

clang does not like an inline assembly with a "=q" contraint for
a 64-bit output:

arch/x86/events/perf_event.h:824:21: error: invalid output size for
constraint '=q'
u64 disable_mask = __this_cpu_read(cpu_hw_events.perf_ctr_virt_mask);
^

raw_cpu_read(pcp); \

#define raw_cpu_read(pcp)

arch/x86/include/asm/percpu.h:394:30: note: expanded from macro 'raw_cpu_read_1'
#define raw_cpu_read_1(pcp) percpu_from_op(, "mov", pcp)
^
arch/x86/include/asm/percpu.h:189:15: note: expanded from macro 'percpu_from_op'
: "=q" (pfo_ret__) \
^

According to the commit that introduced the "q" constraint, this was
needed to fix miscompilation, but it gives no further detail.

Using the normal "=r" constraint seems to work so far.
