kbuild: rust: keep Rust objects out of Clang LTO with inline helpersgrafted
Under `CONFIG_LTO_CLANG` + `CONFIG_RUST_INLINE_HELPERS`, one may hit `objtool` errors such as: vmlinux.o: error: objtool: _R..._3Gsp4boot+0xd6a: can't find jump dest instruction at .text._R..._3Gsp4boot+0x1dfd The reason is that in such builds, the Clang invocation that compiles the combined Rust plus helpers bitcode emits LLVM bitcode (again) -- the final code generation happens in the linker's LTO step, which the `-mllvm` trap options passed to Clang do not reach. This, in turn, means that unreachable traps are missing, and the impossible paths do not merely fallthrough to the next symbol, but past the end of their own section, since LTO builds place each function in its own section. Thus filter `CC_FLAGS_LTO` out of the Clang invocation, so that it always emits machine code directly, with the traps in place.

+
+Panthor DRM client usage stats implementation
+==============================================
+
+The drm/Panthor driver implements the DRM client usage stats specification as
+documented in :ref:`drm-client-usage-stats`.
+
+Example of the output showing the implemented key value pairs and entirety of
+the currently possible format options:
+
+::
+ pos: 0
+ flags: 02400002
+ mnt_id: 29
+ ino: 491
+ drm-driver: panthor
+ drm-client-id: 10
+ drm-engine-panthor: 111110952750 ns
+ drm-cycles-panthor: 94439687187
+ drm-maxfreq-panthor: 1000000000 Hz
+ drm-curfreq-panthor: 1000000000 Hz
+ panthor-resident-memory: 10396 KiB
+ panthor-active-memory: 10396 KiB
+ drm-total-memory: 16480 KiB
+ drm-shared-memory: 0
+ drm-active-memory: 16200 KiB
+ drm-resident-memory: 16480 KiB
+ drm-purgeable-memory: 0
+
+Possible `drm-engine-` key names are: `panthor`.
+`drm-curfreq-` values convey the current operating frequency for that engine.
+
+Users must bear in mind that engine and cycle sampling are disabled by default,
+because of power saving concerns. `fdinfo` users and benchmark applications which
+query the fdinfo file must make sure to toggle the job profiling status of the
+driver by writing into the appropriate sysfs node::
+
+ echo <N> > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/panthor/[a-f0-9]*.gpu/profiling
+
+Where `N` is a bit mask where cycle and timestamp sampling are respectively
+enabled by the first and second bits.
+
+Possible `panthor-*-memory` keys are: `active` and `resident`.
+These values convey the sizes of the internal driver-owned shmem BO's that
+aren't exposed to user-space through a DRM handle, like queue ring buffers,
+sync object arrays and heap chunks. Because they are all allocated and pinned
+at creation time, only `panthor-resident-memory` is necessary to tell us their
+size. `panthor-active-memory` shows the size of kernel BO's associated with
+VM's and groups currently being scheduled for execution by the GPU.
