It's unnecessary and non-portable; Clang doesn't even implement that part of GNU C.
Clang's driver does not seem to forward this on, unlike GCC's, so instead ensure the linker sees it by using -Wl.
Clang only supports register variables when declared at global scope (and only for non-allocatable registers, which is fine for tp), so move thread_pointer. This does not make thread_pointer visible outside the translation unit, it merely acts as a C alias for tp, so the semantics remain unchanged.
GNU as let .weak override .globl since binutils-gdb 5ca547dc2399a0a5d9f20626d4bf5547c3ccfddd (1996) while MC lets the last directive win (PR38921). https://reviews.llvm.org/D90108 For current version of riscv-tests, compile with clang will get errors of change binding of certain symbols to .globl. Change its second definition to .weak will let clang pass the compilation without affecting GNU's compilation sanity.

When trying to compile riscv-tests with clang, several incompatible compilation issues between clang and gcc are met, such as:
0f:7fc00000.weakoverride.globl, while clang lets the last directive win https://reviews.llvm.org/D90108
