CFLAGS_REMOVE appears to be only implemented for objects, which means
there's no convenient way to filter out flags for everything in
arch/arm64/kvm/hyp, for example. I could add a CFLAGS_REMOVE
separately for each object file, or we could add something like
ccflags-remove-y to complement ccflags-y, which should be relatively
simple. Masahiro, do you have any suggestions?
