Thanks for clarifying off list that:
```
It's not escaping the spaces, it's escaping any quotes
example: -Clink-args='-Wl,-z,relro -Wl,-linker-plugin-lto'
Without the quote, the second one would go to rustc rather than the linker
```

Sorry for misunderstanding what exactly we were escaping here and why;
thanks for implementing my suggestion of passing along
KBUILD_HOSTLDFLAGS though.  That will avoid issues for Android
downstream.
