arm64: bti: Require clang >= 10.0.1 for in-kernel BTI support

Unfortunately, most versions of clang that support BTI are capable of
miscompiling the kernel when converting a switch statement into a jump
table. As an example, attempting to spawn a KVM guest results in a panic:

[   56.253312] Kernel panic - not syncing: bad mode
[   56.253834] CPU: 0 PID: 279 Comm: lkvm Not tainted 5.8.0-rc1 #2

[   56.258361]  el0_sync+0x158/0x180

This is because the switch in kvm_vm_ioctl_check_extension_generic()
is executed as an indirect branch to tail-call through a jump table:

ffff800010032dc8:       3869694c        ldrb    w12, [x10, x9]
ffff800010032dcc:       8b0c096b        add     x11, x11, x12, lsl #2
ffff800010032dd0:       d61f0160        br      x11

However, where the target case uses the stack, the landing pad is elided
due to the presence of a paciasp instruction:

ffff800010032e14:       d503233f        paciasp
ffff800010032e18:       a9bf7bfd        stp     x29, x30, [sp, #-16]!
ffff800010032e1c:       910003fd        mov     x29, sp
ffff800010032e20:       aa0803e0        mov     x0, x8
ffff800010032e24:       940017c0        bl      ffff800010038d24 <kvm_vm_ioctl_check_extension>
ffff800010032e28:       93407c00        sxtw    x0, w0
ffff800010032e2c:       a8c17bfd        ldp     x29, x30, [sp], #16
ffff800010032e30:       d50323bf        autiasp
ffff800010032e34:       d65f03c0        ret

Unfortunately, this results in a fatal exception because paciasp is
compatible only with branch-and-link (call) instructions and not simple
indirect branches.

A fix is being merged into Clang 10.0.1 so that a 'bti j' instruction is
emitted as an explicit landing pad in this situation. Make in-kernel
BTI depend on that compiler version when building with clang.
