When building pseries_defconfig, building vdso32 errors out:

  error: unknown target ABI 'elfv1'

This happens because -m32 in clang changes the target to 32-bit,
which does not allow the ABI to be changed, as the setABI virtual
function is not overridden:

https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/llvmorg-9.0.0-rc2/clang/include/clang/Basic/TargetInfo.h#L1073-L1078

https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/llvmorg-9.0.0-rc2/clang/lib/Basic/Targets/PPC.h#L327-L365

Commit 4dc831aa8813 ("powerpc: Fix compiling a BE kernel with a
powerpc64le toolchain") added these flags to fix building big endian
kernels with a little endian GCC.

Clang doesn't need -mabi because the target triple controls the default
value. -mlittle-endian and -mbig-endian manipulate the triple into
either powerpc64-* or powerpc64le-*, which properly sets the default
ABI:

https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/llvmorg-9.0.0-rc2/clang/lib/Driver/Driver.cpp#L450-L463

https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/llvmorg-9.0.0-rc2/llvm/lib/Support/Triple.cpp#L1432-L1516

https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/llvmorg-9.0.0-rc2/clang/lib/Basic/Targets/PPC.h#L377-L383

Adding a debug print out in the PPC64TargetInfo constructor after line
383 above shows this:

$ echo | ./clang -E --target=powerpc64-linux -mbig-endian -o /dev/null -
Default ABI: elfv1

$ echo | ./clang -E --target=powerpc64-linux -mlittle-endian -o /dev/null -
Default ABI: elfv2

$ echo | ./clang -E --target=powerpc64le-linux -mbig-endian -o /dev/null -
Default ABI: elfv1

$ echo | ./clang -E --target=powerpc64le-linux -mlittle-endian -o /dev/null -
Default ABI: elfv2

Don't specify -mabi when building with clang to avoid the build error
with -m32 and not change any code generation.

-mcall-aixdesc is not an implemented flag in clang so it can be
safely excluded as well, see commit 238abecde8ad ("powerpc: Don't
use gcc specific options on clang").

pseries_defconfig successfully builds after this patch and
powernv_defconfig and ppc44x_defconfig don't regress.
