Currently, rustc defaults to invoking `cc`, even if `HOSTCC` is defined,
resulting in build failures in hermetic environments where `cc` does not
exist. This includes both hostprogs and proc-macros.

Since we are setting the linker to `HOSTCC`, we set the linker flavor to
`gcc` explicitly. The linker-flavor selects both which linker to search
for if the linker is unset, and which kind of linker flags to pass.
Without this flag, `rustc` would attempt to determine which flags to
pass based on the name of the binary passed as `HOSTCC`. `gcc` is the
name of the linker-flavor used by `rustc` for all C compilers, including
both `gcc` and `clang`.

Edited to use escsq in both Makefiles, as per Masahiro Yamada's
suggestion.

Acked-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>

if Miguel picked this up.


Please let me know if I should pick this up.

Thanks a lot for taking a look Masahiro -- either way is fine for me.
If you want to take it, please feel free to add my `Acked-by`.

Cheers,
Miguel

I do not see this yet in linux-next.

So, I applied to linux-kbuild with Miguel's Ack now.
