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.

+Using the mtty vfio-mdev sample code
+====================================
+
+mtty is a sample vfio-mdev driver that demonstrates how to use the mediated
+device framework.
+
+The sample driver creates an mdev device that simulates a serial port over a PCI
+card.
+
+1. Build and load the mtty.ko module.
+
+   This step creates a dummy device, /sys/devices/virtual/mtty/mtty/
+
+   Files in this device directory in sysfs are similar to the following::
+
+     # tree /sys/devices/virtual/mtty/mtty/
+        /sys/devices/virtual/mtty/mtty/
+        |-- mdev_supported_types
+        |   |-- mtty-1
+        |   |   |-- available_instances
+        |   |   |-- create
+        |   |   |-- device_api
+        |   |   |-- devices
+        |   |   `-- name
+        |   `-- mtty-2
+        |       |-- available_instances
+        |       |-- create
+        |       |-- device_api
+        |       |-- devices
+        |       `-- name
+        |-- mtty_dev
+        |   `-- sample_mtty_dev
+        |-- power
+        |   |-- autosuspend_delay_ms
+        |   |-- control
+        |   |-- runtime_active_time
+        |   |-- runtime_status
+        |   `-- runtime_suspended_time
+        |-- subsystem -> ../../../../class/mtty
+        `-- uevent
+
+2. Create a mediated device by using the dummy device that you created in the
+   previous step::
+
+     # echo "83b8f4f2-509f-382f-3c1e-e6bfe0fa1001" >	\
+              /sys/devices/virtual/mtty/mtty/mdev_supported_types/mtty-2/create
+
+3. Add parameters to qemu-kvm::
+
+     -device vfio-pci,\
+      sysfsdev=/sys/bus/mdev/devices/83b8f4f2-509f-382f-3c1e-e6bfe0fa1001
+
+4. Boot the VM.
+
+   In the Linux guest VM, with no hardware on the host, the device appears
+   as  follows::
+
+     # lspci -s 00:05.0 -xxvv
+     00:05.0 Serial controller: Device 4348:3253 (rev 10) (prog-if 02 [16550])
+             Subsystem: Device 4348:3253
+             Physical Slot: 5
+             Control: I/O+ Mem- BusMaster- SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr-
+     Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- DisINTx-
+             Status: Cap- 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort-
+     <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- INTx-
+             Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 10
+             Region 0: I/O ports at c150 [size=8]
+             Region 1: I/O ports at c158 [size=8]
+             Kernel driver in use: serial
+     00: 48 43 53 32 01 00 00 02 10 02 00 07 00 00 00 00
+     10: 51 c1 00 00 59 c1 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
+     20: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 48 43 53 32
+     30: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 0a 01 00 00
+
+     In the Linux guest VM, dmesg output for the device is as follows:
+
+     serial 0000:00:05.0: PCI INT A -> Link[LNKA] -> GSI 10 (level, high) -> IRQ 10
+     0000:00:05.0: ttyS1 at I/O 0xc150 (irq = 10) is a 16550A
+     0000:00:05.0: ttyS2 at I/O 0xc158 (irq = 10) is a 16550A
+
+
+5. In the Linux guest VM, check the serial ports::
+
+     # setserial -g /dev/ttyS*
+     /dev/ttyS0, UART: 16550A, Port: 0x03f8, IRQ: 4
+     /dev/ttyS1, UART: 16550A, Port: 0xc150, IRQ: 10
+     /dev/ttyS2, UART: 16550A, Port: 0xc158, IRQ: 10
+
+6. Using minicom or any terminal emulation program, open port /dev/ttyS1 or
+   /dev/ttyS2 with hardware flow control disabled.
+
+7. Type data on the minicom terminal or send data to the terminal emulation
+   program and read the data.
+
+   Data is loop backed from hosts mtty driver.
+
+8. Destroy the mediated device that you created::
+
+     # echo 1 > /sys/bus/mdev/devices/83b8f4f2-509f-382f-3c1e-e6bfe0fa1001/remove
+
