init/Kconfig: Only block on RANDSTRUCT for RUST
When enabling Rust in the kernel, we only need to block on the RANDSTRUCT feature and GCC plugin. The rest of the GCC plugins are reasonably safe to enable. [ Originally (years ago) we only had this restriction, but we ended up restricting also the rest of the GCC plugins 1) to be on the safe side, 2) since compiler plugin support could be going away in the kernel and 3) since mixed builds are best effort so far; so I asked Neal about his experience enabling the other plugins -- Neal says: When I originally wrote this patch two years ago to get things working, Fedora used all the GCC plugins, so I was trying to get GCC + Rust to work while minimizing the delta on build differences. This was the combination that worked. We've been carrying this patch in the Asahi tree for a year now. And while Fedora does not currently have GCC plugins enabled because it caused issues with some third-party modules (I think it was the NVIDIA driver, but I'm not sure), it was around long enough for me to know with some confidence that it was fine this way. - Miguel ] Signed-off-by: Neal Gompa <neal@gompa.dev> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240731125615.3368813-1-neal@gompa.dev Signed-off-by: Miguel Ojeda <ojeda@kernel.org>
