Like I post previouly, the following is needed upon this to make the
command "make LLVM=1" still work on x86:

(the reason is https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/ZNu9JhYlsFWmliQE@boqun-archlinux/)

I put an updated version in the rust-dev branch:

	https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux/commits/rust-dev

and have tested it (with kunit), so feel free to add:

Tested-by: Boqun Feng <boqun.feng at gmail.com>

More information for ARM64 maintainers, I have queued the previous
version for a while and tested with it whenever I updated the rust-dev,
so far no problem. I also have accesses to some ARM64 VMs (on Microsoft
Azure), if you want to see more testing, feel free to let me know.

Regards,
Boqun
