Miguel Ojeda 1c4494c14b rust: kbuild: use pound to support GNU Make < 4.3 
GNU Make 4.3 changed the behavior of `#` inside commands in commit
c6966b323811 ("[SV 20513] Un-escaped # are not comments in function
invocations"):

    * WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
      Number signs (#) appearing inside a macro reference or function invocation
      no longer introduce comments and should not be escaped with backslashes:
      thus a call such as:
        foo := $(shell echo '#')
      is legal.  Previously the number sign needed to be escaped, for example:
        foo := $(shell echo '\#')
      Now this latter will resolve to "\#".  If you want to write makefiles
      portable to both versions, assign the number sign to a variable:
        H := \#
        foo := $(shell echo '$H')
      This was claimed to be fixed in 3.81, but wasn't, for some reason.
      To detect this change search for 'nocomment' in the .FEATURES variable.

Unlike other commits in the kernel about this issue, such as commit
633174a704 ("lib/raid6/test/Makefile: Use $(pound) instead of \#
for Make 4.3"), that fixed the issue for newer GNU Makes, in our case
it was the opposite, i.e. we need to fix it for the older ones: someone
building with e.g. 4.2.1 gets the following error:

    scripts/Makefile.compiler:81: *** unterminated call to function 'call': missing ')'.  Stop.

Thus use the existing variable to fix it.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
