Documentation/llvm: update CROSS_COMPILE inferencing

As noted by Masahiro, document how we can generally infer CROSS_COMPILE
(and the more specific details about --target and --prefix) based on
ARCH.

Change use of env vars to command line parameters.

+Omitting CROSS_COMPILE
+----------------------
+
+As explained above, ``CROSS_COMPILE`` is used to set ``--target=<triple>``.
+
+Unless ``LLVM_IAS=1`` is specified, ``CROSS_COMPILE`` is also used to derive
+``--prefix=<path>`` to search for the GNU assembler and linker.
+
+If ``CROSS_COMPILE`` is not specified, the ``--target=<triple>`` is inferred
+from ``ARCH``.
+
+That means if you use only LLVM tools, ``CROSS_COMPILE`` becomes unnecessary.
+
+For example, to cross-compile the arm64 kernel::
+
+	make ARCH=arm64 LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1
