Hi Conor,

What happens is that when building against GCC, Kbuild gathers flag
assuming CC is GCC, but bindgen uses clang instead. In this case, the
CC is GCC and all C code is built by GCC. We have a filtering mechanism
to only give bindgen (libclang) flags that it can understand.

While I do think this is a bit fragile, this is what I think all
distros that enable Rust use. They still prefer to build C code with
GCC. So I hope we can still keep that option around.

Best,
Gary
