When building Arm NEON (SIMD) code from lib/raid6/neon.uc, GCC emits DWARF information using a base type "__Poly8_t", which is internal to GCC and not recognized by Clang. This causes build failures when building with Clang a vmlinux.h generated from an arm64 kernel that was built with GCC. vmlinux.h:47284:9: error: unknown type name '__Poly8_t' typedef __Poly8_t poly8x16_t[16]; ^~~~~~~~~ The polyX_t types are defined as unsigned integers in the "Arm C Language Extension" document (101028_Q220_00_en). Emit typedefs based on standard integer types for the GCC internal types, similar to those emitted by Clang. Including linux/kernel.h to use ARRAY_SIZE() incidentally redefined max(), causing a build bug due to different types, hence the seemingly unrelated change.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
