Clang's integrated assembler does not allow to to use the mcr
instruction to access floating point co-processor registers:
arch/arm/vfp/vfpmodule.c:342:2: error: invalid operand for instruction
        fmxr(FPEXC, fpexc & ~(FPEXC_EX|FPEXC_DEX|FPEXC_FP2V|FPEXC_VV|FPEXC_TRAP_MASK));
        ^
arch/arm/vfp/vfpinstr.h:79:6: note: expanded from macro 'fmxr'
        asm("mcr p10, 7, %0, " vfpreg(_vfp_) ", cr0, 0 @ fmxr   " #_vfp_ ", %0" \
            ^
<inline asm>:1:6: note: instantiated into assembly here
        mcr p10, 7, r0, cr8, cr0, 0 @ fmxr      FPEXC, r0
            ^

Ideally we would replace this code with the unified assembler language
mnemonics vmrs/vmsr on call sites along with .fpu assembler directives.
The GNU assembler supports the .fpu directive at least since 2.17 (when
documentation has been added). Since Linux requires binutils 2.21 it is
safe to use .fpu directive. However, binutils does not allow to use
FPINST or FPINST2 as an argument to vmrs/vmsr instructions up to
binutils 2.24 (see binutils commit 16d02dc907c5):
arch/arm/vfp/vfphw.S: Assembler messages:
arch/arm/vfp/vfphw.S:162: Error: operand 0 must be FPSID or FPSCR pr FPEXC -- `vmsr FPINST,r6'
arch/arm/vfp/vfphw.S:165: Error: operand 0 must be FPSID or FPSCR pr FPEXC -- `vmsr FPINST2,r8'
arch/arm/vfp/vfphw.S:235: Error: operand 1 must be a VFP extension System Register -- `vmrs r3,FPINST'
arch/arm/vfp/vfphw.S:238: Error: operand 1 must be a VFP extension System Register -- `vmrs r12,FPINST2'

Use as-instr in Kconfig to check if FPINST/FPINST2 can be used. If they
can be used make use of .fpu directives and UAL VFP mnemonics for
register access.

This allows to build vfpmodule.c with Clang and its integrated assembler.

Changes in v2:
- Check assembler capabilities in Kconfig instead of Makefile
