Subject: [PATCH 3/3] efi/libstub: Add $(CLANG_FLAGS) to x86 flags

When cross compiling x86 on an ARM machine with clang, there are several
errors along the lines of:

arch/x86/include/asm/page_64.h:52:7: error: invalid output constraint
'=D' in asm

This happens because the x86 flags in the EFI stub are not derived from
KBUILD_CFLAGS like the other architectures are and the clang flags that
set the target architecture ('--target=') and the path to the GNU cross
tools ('--prefix=') are not present, meaning that the host architecture
is targeted.

These flags are available as $(CLANG_FLAGS) from the main Makefile so
add them to the cflags for x86 so that cross compiling works as
expected.
