This is literally just +1 LOC for Clang b/c it has a system for adding no-op flags already, which is mostly used for GCC compatibility. It even uses it in cases that are quite dubious like making -fstack- check into a no-op, despite it not just being an optional optimization / code generation change like -fno-plt.
