Anyone knows if it already builds the Kernel out of the box? Last time I checked, some OOT patches were required (both at LLVM and at Kernel sides)?

We can build arm{32,64} and ppc{32,64le} defconfig without any out of tree patches as of 5.1-rc1 and LLVM 8.0.0.

asm goto is still a WIP in clang so a set of reverts is needed for x86 (otherwise, defconfig and allyesconfig build without any issues).
