Sure. clang is not the only compiler/linker that can handle kernel ;). 
So while rebasing gcc-LTO-kernel-patches to 5.19-rc (to upstream them 
later), this broke. See:
https://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=blob;f=gcc/lto-wrapper.cc;h=26e06e77be4e0afb2bc3e913062a9c51cab5d205;hb=HEAD#l1336

gcc really parses MAKEFLAGS and looks for "--jobserver-auth=" there, if 
one passes specifies -flto=jobserver.

thanks,
