When CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_LATENT_ENTROPY and CONFIG_RUST are enabled, rust
bindgen fails due to latent_entropy being undeclared:
BINDGEN rust/bindings/bindings_generated.rs
./include/linux/random.h:24:39: error: use of undeclared identifier 'latent_entropy'
./include/linux/random.h:24:62: error: use of undeclared identifier 'latent_entropy'
Unable to generate bindings: clang diagnosed error: ./include/linux/random.h:24:39: error: use of undeclared identifier 'latent_entropy'
./include/linux/random.h:24:62: error: use of undeclared identifier 'latent_entropy'
Fix this by adding DISABLE_LATENT_ENTROPY_PLUGIN to
bindgen_extra_c_flags.

Cc'ing plugins and Kbuild.
Kees, Emese: from a quick look at the plugin, it doesn't seem to
change the signature of the functions (and even for variables it just
initializes), so it seems OK to ignore it for `bindgen` purposes, at
least naively. So I think this sounds fine.
Thanks!
Cheers,
Miguel
