Subject: [PATCH 1/6] tools/rtla: Fix Makefile compiler options for clang

The following errors are showing up when compiling rtla with clang:

 $ make HOSTCC=clang CC=clang LLVM_IAS=1
 [...]

  clang -O -g -DVERSION=\"6.8.0-rc1\" -flto=auto -ffat-lto-objects
	-fexceptions -fstack-protector-strong
	-fasynchronous-unwind-tables -fstack-clash-protection  -Wall
	-Werror=format-security -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2
	-Wp,-D_GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS -Wno-maybe-uninitialized
	$(pkg-config --cflags libtracefs)    -c -o src/utils.o src/utils.c

  clang: warning: optimization flag '-ffat-lto-objects' is not supported [-Wignored-optimization-argument]
  warning: unknown warning option '-Wno-maybe-uninitialized'; did you mean '-Wno-uninitialized'? [-Wunknown-warning-option]
  1 warning generated.

  clang -o rtla -ggdb  src/osnoise.o src/osnoise_hist.o src/osnoise_top.o
  src/rtla.o src/timerlat_aa.o src/timerlat.o src/timerlat_hist.o
  src/timerlat_top.o src/timerlat_u.o src/trace.o src/utils.o $(pkg-config --libs libtracefs)

  src/osnoise.o: file not recognized: file format not recognized
  clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
  make: *** [Makefile:110: rtla] Error 1

Solve these issues by:
  - removing -ffat-lto-objects and -Wno-maybe-uninitialized if using clang
  - informing the linker about -flto=auto
