x86/boot/startup: Disable LTO for the startup code
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.
