[PATCH] rust: arch:um: Fix building 32-bit UML with GCC

[PATCH] rust: arch:um: Fix building 32-bit UML with GCC

[David Gow]

32-bit UML builds can be configured either by setting CONFIG_64BIT=n or
with SUBARCH=i386. Both work with Rust-for-Linux when clang is the
compiler, but when SUBARCH=i386, we don't set a bindgen target correctly if
gcc is the compiler.

Add the appropriate bindgen target configuration for i386, as is done in
Makefile.clang.

Fixes: ab0f4cedc355 ("arch: um: rust: Add i386 support for Rust")

This could go in via either the rust or um trees. I suspect rust is less
likely to trigger conflicts, though.

Applied to `rust-fixes` -- thanks!

    [ For reference, the errors look like:

            BINDGEN rust/bindings/bindings_generated.rs
          error: unsupported option '-mno-sse' for target ''
          ...
          error: unknown target triple 'unknown'
          panicked at .../bindgen-0.72.1/ir/context.rs:562:15:

    [ Added space in title. - Miguel ]

(I left the comment as-is to keep the match from `Makefile.clang`).

Cheers,
