Kernel build with clang and KCFLAGS=-fprofile-sample-use fails with: error: arch/arm64/kvm/hyp/nvhe/kvm_nvhe.tmp.o: Unexpected SHT_REL section ".rel.llvm.call-graph-profile" Starting from 13.0.0 llvm can generate SHT_REL section, see https://reviews.llvm.org/rGca3bdb57fa1ac98b711a735de048c12b5fdd8086. gen-hyprel does not support SHT_REL relocation section. Remove ".llvm.call-graph-profile" SHT_REL relocation from kvm_nvhe to fix the build.
