I have a backport in 3.12. There was a conflict in comments. Could you
try that?

    ARC: use ASL assembler mnemonic

    commit a6416f57ce57fb390b6ee30b12c01c29032a26af upstream.

    ARCompact and ARCv2 only have ASL, while binutils used to support LSL as
    a alias mnemonic.

    Newer binutils (upstream) don't want to do that so replace it.
