I wonder why I see GNU/as here (see above CONFIG_LD_IS_LLD=y)?

$ llvm-dwarfdump-11 vmlinux | head -20 | egrep
'debug_info|format|version|DW_AT_producer'
vmlinux:        file format elf64-x86-64
.debug_info contents:
0x00000000: Compile Unit: length = 0x0000001e, format = DWARF32,
version = 0x0004, abbr_offset = 0x0000, addr_size = 0x08 (next unit at
0x00000022)
             DW_AT_producer    ("GNU AS 2.35.1")
0x00000022: Compile Unit: length = 0x0000c1d2, format = DWARF32,

Maybe, I should set all LLVM utils and linker manually, not using LLVM=1.
