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.

+SYNOPSIS
+========
+**rtla timerlat top** [*OPTIONS*] ...
+
+DESCRIPTION
+===========
+
+.. include:: common_timerlat_description.txt
+
+The **rtla timerlat top** displays a summary of the periodic output
+from the *timerlat* tracer. It also provides information for each
+operating system noise via the **osnoise:** tracepoints that can be
+seen with the option **-T**.
+
+OPTIONS
+=======

+
+.. include:: common_top_options.txt
+
+.. include:: common_options.txt
+
+.. include:: common_timerlat_aa.txt
+
+**--aa-only** *us*
+
+        Set stop tracing conditions and run without collecting and displaying statistics.
+        Print the auto-analysis if the system hits the stop tracing condition. This option
+        is useful to reduce rtla timerlat CPU, enabling the debug without the overhead of
+        collecting the statistics.
+
+EXAMPLE
+=======
+
+In the example below, the timerlat tracer is dispatched in cpus *1-23* in the
+automatic trace mode, instructing the tracer to stop if a *40 us* latency or
+higher is found::
+
+  # timerlat -a 40 -c 1-23 -q

+  Saving trace to timerlat_trace.txt
+
+In this case, the major factor was the delay suffered by the *IRQ handler*
+that handles **timerlat** wakeup: *65.52%*. This can be caused by the
+current thread masking interrupts, which can be seen in the blocking
+thread stacktrace: the current thread (*objtool:49256*) disabled interrupts
+via *raw spin lock* operations inside mem cgroup, while doing write
+syscall in a btrfs file system.
+
+The raw trace is saved in the **timerlat_trace.txt** file for further analysis.
+
+Note that **rtla timerlat** was dispatched without changing *timerlat* tracer
+threads' priority. That is generally not needed because these threads have
+priority *FIFO:95* by default, which is a common priority used by real-time
+kernel developers to analyze scheduling delays.
