kbuild: rust: allow `clippy::uninlined_format_args`

commit 10eea3c147141c90cf409b8df56d245c9d7f88d9 upstream.

Clippy in Rust 1.88.0 (only) reports [1]:

The reason it only triggers in that version is that the lint was moved
from `pedantic` to `style` in Rust 1.88.0 and then back to `pedantic`
in Rust 1.89.0 [2][3].

In the first case, the suggestion is fair and a pure simplification, thus
we will clean it up separately.

To keep the behavior the same across all versions, and since the lint
does not work for all macros (e.g. custom ones like `pr_info!`), disable
it globally.

kbuild: Delete .builtin-dtbs.S when running make clean

2026-04-02T11:23:18+00:00

commit a76e30c2479ce6ffa2aa6c8a8462897afc82bc90 upstream.

The makefile tries to delete a file named ".builtin-dtb.S" but the file
created by scripts/Makefile.vmlinux is actually called ".builtin-dtbs.S".

Fixes: 654102df2ac2a ("kbuild: add generic support for built-in boot DTBs")
