arm64: scs: Disable LTO for SCS patching code
Full LTO takes the '-mbranch-protection=none' passed to the compiler when generating the dynamic shadow call stack patching code as a hint to stop emitting PAC instructions altogether. (Thin LTO appears unaffected by this) Work around this by disabling LTO for the compilation unit, which appears to convince the linker that it should still use PAC in the rest of the kernel..
