It seems to apply fine to Linus's tree (0585df4), but I'll send a v2
which is rediffed.

$ git grep DISABLE_LTO
arch/sparc/vdso/Makefile:KBUILD_CFLAGS += $(DISABLE_LTO)
arch/sparc/vdso/Makefile:                       $(DISABLE_LTO)
arch/x86/entry/vdso/Makefile:KBUILD_CFLAGS += $(DISABLE_LTO)
arch/x86/entry/vdso/Makefile:                   $(DISABLE_LTO)
kernel/Makefile:CFLAGS_sys_ni.o = $(DISABLE_LTO)
scripts/Makefile.build:cmd_cc_s_c       = $(CC) $(c_flags)
$(DISABLE_LTO) -fverbose-asm -S -o $@ $<

Looks like a dead option to me, but maybe somebody else knows better.
v2 will explain this removal.
