Nathan Chancellor reported a kernel build error on Fedora 39:
$ clang --version | head -1
clang version 16.0.5 (Fedora 16.0.5-1.fc39)
$ s390x-linux-gnu-ld --version | head -1
GNU ld version 2.40-1.fc39
$ make -skj"$(nproc)" ARCH=s390 CC=clang CROSS_COMPILE=s390x-linux-gnu- olddefconfig all
s390x-linux-gnu-ld: arch/s390/boot/startup.o(.text+0x5b4): misaligned symbol `_decompressor_end' (0x35b0f) for relocation R_390_PC32DBL
make[3]: *** [.../arch/s390/boot/Makefile:78: arch/s390/boot/vmlinux] Error 1
It turned out that the problem with misaligned symbols on s390 was fixed
with commit 80ddf5ce1c92 ("s390: always build relocatable kernel") for the
kernel image, but did not take into account that the decompressor uses its
own set of CFLAGS, which come without -fPIE.
Add the -fPIE flag also to the decompresser CFLAGS to fix this.
