LLD fails to link MIPS kernel

[nabijaczleweli]

make LLVM=1 CC=clang CROSS_COMPILE=mips-linux-gnu ARCH=mips in 228a65d (and, previously, accefff) yields this:

ld.lld: error: arch/mips/vdso/elf.o is incompatible with elf32-tradlittlemips
ld.lld: error: arch/mips/vdso/vgettimeofday.o is incompatible with elf32-tradlittlemips
ld.lld: error: arch/mips/vdso/sigreturn.o is incompatible with elf32-tradlittlemips
make[2]: *** [arch/mips/vdso/Makefile:121: arch/mips/vdso/vdso.so.dbg.raw] Error 1
make[1]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:496: arch/mips/vdso] Error 2
make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

However, overriding just LD to binutils' works, so a success nonetheless.

Toolchain, as obtained from http://apt.llvm.org/buster/:

nabijaczleweli@tarta:~/store/Carambola2/linux$ ld.lld --version
LLD 12.0.0 (compatible with GNU linkers)
nabijaczleweli@tarta:~/store/Carambola2/linux$ clang --version
Debian clang version 12.0.0-++20210124115112+5d12b976b004-1~exp1~20210124105850.1269
Target: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
Thread model: posix

This is a duplicate of #1025, which is a known issue with ld.lld because it does not properly support a triple version of OUTPUT_FORMAT.

Thank you for testing and reporting it back, I appreciate it!
