FWIW, when I do Clang test builds lately[1], I've been using:

make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- CC=clang

(Note this requires a cross-compiled binutils installed in the PATH
with as aarch64-linux-gnu-*, which is where Debian and Ubuntu put
them.)

[1] for today's defconfig build to finish, I had to:

./scripts/config -d CONFIG_ARM64_LSE_ATOMICS
(I think my binutils are old)

and comment out the BUILD_BUG_ON() in net/core/filter.c from 2dbb9b9e6df67
(which looks like it needs some attention since gcc has no problem with this)
