Build support for gcc-plugins are not detected with gcc-11 in lts kernels. Gentoo and Arch apply their own patch to fix the problem in their distribution kernels but I would prefer if a proper fix was applied upstream.
https://bugs.gentoo.org/814200 a gentoo report with the relevant info.
I've searched for any upstream discussions about the problem but I've only found one message saying the backport needs an additional fix. That was almost a year ago. https://www.spinics.net/lists/stable/msg438000.html

We can not take a patch in a stable kernel release unless it is already in Linus's tree. Please work to get a patch accepted there first, before worrying about older kernel versions.

The problem was fixed in Linus tree in commit 67a5a68013056cbcf0a647e36cb6f4622fb6a470 "gcc-plugins: fix gcc 11 indigestion with plugins..." added in v5.11
That's the patch that needed some kind of additional fix before it could be backported but that fix never materialized.

Here is the patch gentoo applies to 5.10. It seems to be a combination of two upstream commits: 67a5a68013056cbcf0a647e36cb6f4622fb6a470 "gcc-plugins: fix gcc 11 indigestion with plugins..." 1e860048c53ee77ee9870dcce94847a28544b753 "gcc-plugins: simplify GCC plugin-dev capability test"
I can't vouch for the correctness of that fix. I'm just a regular user who stumbled upon this problem and found that gentoo bug report. Check with Kees Cook for that "additional fix". I don't know what fix that is.

That's not how I can take a patch, sorry. Please submit these as individual emails so that then could be applied.
I can't vouch for the correctness of that fix. I'm just a regular user who stumbled upon this problem and found that gentoo bug report. Check with Kees Cook for that "additional fix". I don't know what fix that is.
I don't think either of them differ from what is in mainline, so I do not know.

Hi!
Yeah, the two fixes that I think are needed for v5.10 are:
1e860048c53ee77ee9870dcce94847a28544b753 67a5a68013056cbcf0a647e36cb6f4622fb6a470
This additionally appears to match the combo patch in gentoo: https://814200.bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=746715
Local build testing shows the plugins working...
