[PATCH] x86/boot/startup: Disable LTO

[Nathan Chancellor]

When building with CONFIG_LTO_CLANG, there is an error in the x86 boot
startup code because it builds with a different code model than the rest
of the kernel:

  ld.lld: error: Function Import: link error: linking module flags 'Code Model': IDs have conflicting values: 'i32 2' from vmlinux.a(head64.o at 1302448), and 'i32 1' from vmlinux.a(map_kernel.o at 1314208)
  ld.lld: error: Function Import: link error: linking module flags 'Code Model': IDs have conflicting values: 'i32 2' from vmlinux.a(common.o at 1306108), and 'i32 1' from vmlinux.a(gdt_idt.o at 1314148)

As this directory is for code that only runs during early system
initialization, LTO is not very important, so filter out the LTO flags
from KBUILD_CFLAGS for arch/x86/boot/startup to resolve the build error.
