The patch titled Subject: linux/compiler-clang.h: define HAVE_BUILTIN_BSWAP* has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was linux-compiler-clangh-define-have_builtin_bswap.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------ From: Arnd Bergmann arnd@arndb.de Subject: linux/compiler-clang.h: define HAVE_BUILTIN_BSWAP*
Separating compiler-clang.h from compiler-gcc.h inadventently dropped the definitions of the three HAVE_BUILTIN_BSWAP macros, which requires falling back to the open-coded version and hoping that the compiler detects it.
Since all versions of clang support the __builtin_bswap interfaces, add back the flags and have the headers pick these up automatically.
This results in a 4% improvement of compilation speed for arm defconfig.
Note: it might also be worth revisiting which architectures set CONFIG_ARCH_USE_BUILTIN_BSWAP for one compiler or the other, today this is set on six architectures (arm32, csky, mips, powerpc, s390, x86), while another ten architectures define custom helpers (alpha, arc, ia64, m68k, mips, nios2, parisc, sh, sparc, xtensa), and the rest (arm64, h8300, hexagon, microblaze, nds32, openrisc, riscv) just get the unoptimized version and rely on the compiler to detect it.
A long time ago, the compiler builtins were architecture specific, but nowadays, all compilers that are able to build the kernel have correct implementations of them, though some may not be as optimized as the inline asm versions.
The patch that dropped the optimization landed in v4.19, so as discussed it would be fairly safe to backport this revert to stable kernels to the 4.19/5.4/5.10 stable kernels, but there is a remaining risk for regressions, and it has no known side-effects besides compile speed.
