x86/purgatory: Remove LTO flags
-flto* implies -ffunction-sections. With LTO enabled, ld.lld generates
multiple .text sections for purgatory.ro:
$ readelf -S purgatory.ro | grep " .text"
[ 1] .text PROGBITS 0000000000000000 00000040
[ 7] .text.purgatory PROGBITS 0000000000000000 000020e0
[ 9] .text.warn PROGBITS 0000000000000000 000021c0
[13] .text.sha256_upda PROGBITS 0000000000000000 000022f0
[15] .text.sha224_upda PROGBITS 0000000000000000 00002be0
[17] .text.sha256_fina PROGBITS 0000000000000000 00002bf0
[19] .text.sha224_fina PROGBITS 0000000000000000 00002cc0
This causes WARNING from kexec_purgatory_setup_sechdrs():
WARNING: CPU: 26 PID: 110894 at kernel/kexec_file.c:919
kexec_load_purgatory+0x37f/0x390
Fix this by disabling LTO for purgatory.
[ AFAICT, x86 is the only arch that supports LTO and purgatory. ]
We could also fix this with an explicit linker script to rejoin .text.*
sections back into .text. However, given the benefit of LTOing purgatory
is small, simply disable the production of more .text.* sections for now.
Fixes: b33fff07e3e3 ("x86, build: allow LTO to be selected")
