Unsurprisingly GCC plugins require GCC as a compiler. This avoids
GCC plugins being selectable when using clang.

I guess the more correct way is to fix
scripts/gcc-plugin.sh
This shell script should exit 0
only when GCC plugin is supported.
Kees?

I'm of two minds: we already have the gcc test in Kconfig so we might
want to avoid redundant checks, but maybe the script should be a
"complete" test. I guess the latter. I will send a patch.

Actually, how about we do the test in Kconfig, but ahead of the
script? That will reduce redundancy:

I like this better. A script which is called gcc-plugin.sh should only
be called if gcc is used...

This does not work like that.
$(shell,$(srctree)/scripts/gcc-plugin.sh "$(preferred-plugin-hostcc)"
"$(HOSTCXX)" "$(CC)")
is expanded in the parse stage regardless of CC_IS_GCC.
If nobody comes up with a better way, I am fine with this.
