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.
