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.

+/**
+ * kernel_read_file() - read file contents into a kernel buffer
+ *
+ * @file: file to read from
+ * @offset: where to start reading from (see below).
+ * @buf: pointer to a "void *" buffer for reading into (if
+ * *@buf is NULL, a buffer will be allocated, and
+ * @buf_size will be ignored)
+ * @buf_size: size of buf, if already allocated. If @buf not
+ * allocated, this is the largest size to allocate.
+ * @file_size: if non-NULL, the full size of @file will be
+ * written here.
+ * @id: the kernel_read_file_id identifying the type of
+ * file contents being read (for LSMs to examine)
+ *
+ * @offset must be 0 unless both @buf and @file_size are non-NULL
+ * (i.e. the caller must be expecting to read partial file contents
+ * via an already-allocated @buf, in at most @buf_size chunks, and
+ * will be able to determine when the entire file was read by
+ * checking @file_size). This isn't a recommended way to read a
+ * file, though, since it is possible that the contents might
+ * change between calls to kernel_read_file().
+ *
+ * Returns number of bytes read (no single read will be bigger
+ * than SSIZE_MAX), or negative on error.
