Trying to build an LTO-Enabled kernel with Thumb2 instructions failed
horribly for me, with an endless output of things like
ccVnNycO.s:2665: Error: thumb conditional instruction should be in IT block --
`bxne lr'

I did not investigate this too much, disabling Thumb2 support when LTO is
set lets me build randconfig kernels.
Since ARM_SINGLE_ARMV7M is Thumb2-only, I have to disallow LTO for V7-M
targets.
