kbuild: Fix TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS with LTO_CLANG
With CONFIG_LTO_CLANG, we currently link modules into native code just before modpost, which means with TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS enabled, we still look at the LLVM bitcode in the .o files when generating the list of used symbols. As the bitcode doesn't yet have calls to compiler intrinsics and llvm-nm doesn't see function references that only exist in function-level inline assembly, we currently need a whitelist for TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS to work with LTO. This change moves module LTO linking to happen earlier, and thus avoids the issue with LLVM bitcode and TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS entirely, allowing us to also drop the whitelist from gen_autoksyms.sh.
