During a build, a lot of *.o.-hash files are created - had not noticed
this as they are usually dumped in tmpfs on Linux. However, they
sometimes are present during a long build in the project directory, making it
annoying to commit while the project is being built.

These have been observed with Clang, -fsanitize-undefined on Arch Linux,
though other configurations may also generate such temporaries.

The solution here is on lines with the Linux kernel's .gitignore:
