x86/boot/compressed: Move CLANG_FLAGS to beginning of KBUILD_CFLAGS
When cross compiling i386_defconfig on an arm64 host with clang, there are a few instances of '-Waddress-of-packed-member' and '-Wgnu-variable-sized-type-not-at-end' in arch/x86/boot/compressed/, which should both be disabled with the cc-disable-warning calls in that directory's Makefile, which indicates that cc-disable-warning is failing at the point of testing these flags. The cc-disable-warning calls fail because at the point that the flags are tested, KBUILD_CFLAGS has '-march=i386' without $(CLANG_FLAGS), which has the '--target=' flag to tell clang what architecture it is targeting. Without the '--target=' flag, the host architecture (arm64) is used and i386 is not a valid value for '-march=' in that case. This error can be seen by adding some logging to try-run: clang-14: error: the clang compiler does not support '-march=i386' Invoking the compiler has to succeed prior to calling cc-option or cc-disable-warning in order to accurately test whether or not the flag is supported; if it doesn't, the requested flag can never be added to the compiler flags. Move $(CLANG_FLAGS) to the beginning of KBUILD_FLAGS so that any new flags that might be added in the future can be accurately tested.
