Subject: [RESEND PATCH v1] x86/build: add -fno-builtin flag to prevent shadowing

Aside of the __builtin_foo() ones, x86 does not directly rely on any
builtin functions.

However, such builtin functions are not explicitly deactivated,
creating some collisions, concrete example being ffs() from bitops.h,
c.f.:

| ./arch/x86/include/asm/bitops.h:283:28: warning: declaration of 'ffs' shadows a built-in function [-Wshadow]
|   283 | static __always_inline int ffs(int x)

This patch adds -fno-builtin to KBUILD_CFLAGS for the x86
architectures in order to prevent shadowing of builtin functions.

FYI, I tested this patch on a "make allyesconfig" for both x86_32 and
x86_64.

This is a resend. Only difference is that I dropped the RFC flag and
added Arnd in CC because he did a similar patch to fix ffs shadow
warnings in the past:
