4.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Ben Hutchings ben@decadent.org.uk
commit 829fe4aa9ac16417a904ad1de1307de906854bcf upstream.
When bootstrapping an architecture, it's usual to generate the kernel's user-space headers (make headers_install) before building a compiler. Move the compiler check (for asm goto support) to the archprepare target so that it is only done when building code for the target.
