[PATCH] drm/i915: fix build issue when using clang

drm/i915 target adds some extra cflags, especially it does re-apply -Wall.
In clang this will override -Wno-format-security and cause the build to
fail when CONFIG_DRM_I915_WERROR=y. While with GCC this does not happen.
We reapply -Wno-format-security here to get around this issue.

drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gt/intel_gt.c:983:2: error: format string is not a string literal (potentially insecure) [-Werror,-Wformat-security]
        GEM_TRACE("ERROR\n");
        ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
./drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem.h:76:24: note: expanded from macro 'GEM_TRACE'
 #define GEM_TRACE(...) trace_printk(__VA_ARGS__)
                       ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
./include/linux/kernel.h:369:3: note: expanded from macro 'trace_printk'
                do_trace_printk(fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__);    \
                ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
./include/linux/kernel.h:383:30: note: expanded from macro 'do_trace_printk'
                __trace_bprintk(_THIS_IP_, trace_printk_fmt, ##args);   \
                                           ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gt/intel_gt.c:983:2: note: treat the string as an argument to avoid this
