When building with CONFIG_CMODEL_MEDLOW and CONFIG_LTO_CLANG, there is a
series of errors due to some files being unconditionally compiled with
'-mcmodel=medany', mismatching with the rest of the kernel built with
'-mcmodel=medlow':
ld.lld: error: Function Import: link error: linking module flags 'Code Model': IDs have conflicting values: 'i32 3' from vmlinux.a(init.o at 899908), and 'i32 1' from vmlinux.a(net-traces.o at 1014628)
Only allow LTO to be performed when CONFIG_CMODEL_MEDANY is enabled to
ensure there will be no code model mismatch errors. An alternative
solution would be disabling LTO for the files with a different code
model than the main kernel like some specialized areas of the kernel do
but doing that for individual files is not as sustainable than
forbidding the combination altogether.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
