Understandable, I remove this one.

I mean, it is not only a ccache issue, it is for possible future (or
existing like `sccache`) other tools, the issue make any
`CC="<my-wrapper-tool> <my-compiler>"` incompatible with a kernel
built with rust for now.

Then I will try do give you a patch soon.

Filter out on the kernel is my proposed solution 4

While technically working, it is still not compatible with
`CC="<my-wrapper-tool> <my-compiler>"` things more generically.

In fact, as I said on my Trial 1, since rustc `-Clinker` only accepts
Paths (or things in $PATH), you can only mitigate the ccache issue,
but not the overall issue, without patching rustc.

I can try to send a patch to rust with my proposed solution 1 and see
what append on their side.
