Subject: [PATCH] um: Fix filtering '-mno-global-merge'

When booting a clang compiled UML kernel, the kernel panics when trying
to run init:

  wait_stub_done : failed to wait for SIGTRAP, pid = 651294, n = 651294, errno = 0, status = 0xb7f
  Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x0000000b

After the commit in Fixes, many flags from KBUILD_CFLAGS do not appear
in USER_CFLAGS, likely due to USER_CFLAGS initially being a recursive
variable ("VAR =") then being switched to a simple ("VAR :=") variable.
For example, diffing arch/x86/um/.ptrace_user.o.cmd shows flags such as
'-Os' and '-fno-delete-null-pointer-checks' getting dropped, which both
impact code generation.

Rework the filtering to use filter-out instead of patsubst, which allows
all the patterns that USER_CFLAGS cares about to be excluded in one
command and ensures all flags from KBUILD_CFLAGS are transferred over to
USER_CFLAGS properly, which resolves the boot issue noted above.

Fixes: 6580c5c18fb3 ("um: clang: Strip out -mno-global-merge from USER_CFLAGS")
