[PATCH v5 23/29] KVM: arm64: disable LTO for the nVHE directory

From: Sami Tolvanen
Date: Fri Oct 09 2020 - 12:15:32 EST


We use objcopy to manipulate ELF binaries for the nVHE code,
which fails with LTO as the compiler produces LLVM bitcode
instead. Disable LTO for this code to allow objcopy to be used.
