Subject: [PATCH 07/11] efi/libstub: Disable some warnings for x86{,_64}

From: Nathan Chancellor <natechancellor@...il.com>

When building the kernel with Clang, some disabled warnings appear
because this Makefile overrides KBUILD_CFLAGS for x86{,_64}. Add them to
this list so that the build is clean again.

-Wpointer-sign was disabled for the whole kernel before the beginning
of git history.

-Waddress-of-packed-member was disabled for the whole kernel in
commit bfb38988c51e ("kbuild: clang: Disable 'address-of-packed-member'
warning") and for x86/boot/compressed in commit 20c6c1890455 ("x86/boot:
Disable the address-of-packed-member compiler warning").

-Wgnu was disabled for the whole kernel in commit 61163efae020 ("kbuild:
LLVMLinux: Add Kbuild support for building kernel with Clang") and for
x86/boot/compressed in commit 6c3b56b19730 ("x86/boot: Disable Clang
warnings about GNU extensions").
