Following build warnings/ errors noticed while building linux next-20210916 with clang-10, clang-11 and clang-12 for arm architecture. - allnoconfig - tinyconfig
But builds PASS with clang-13.

Thank you for the report. This is caused by the implicit switch to the integrated assembler in commit f12b034afeb3 ("scripts/Makefile.clang: default to LLVM_IAS=1").
Prior to LLVM 13, -Wa,-mimplicit-it=... was not properly handled by the integrated assembler but Nick fixed that:

As noted in the above Linux commit, please adjust arm clang-10 through clang-12 builds with TuxSuite to pass 'LLVM_IAS=0' to make, which you can do with the 'make_variables' key:
https://github.com/ClangBuiltLinux/continuous-integration2/blob/a998b85bf1d2...
Sorry for not giving you guys more of a heads up about that switch.
Cheers, Nathan
