When building a CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION enabled kernel without the
libelf devel package installed, the Makefile prints a warning:

  "Cannot use CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION, please install libelf-dev, libelf-devel or elfutils-libelf-devel"

But when building an out-of-tree module, the warning doesn't show.
Instead it tries to use objtool, and the build fails with:

  /bin/sh: ./tools/objtool/objtool: No such file or directory

Make sure the warning and the disabling of objtool occur in all cases,
by moving the CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION checks outside the 'ifeq
($(KBUILD_EXTMOD),)' block in the Makefile.

Some versions of ARM GCC compiler such as Android toolchain throws in a
'-fpic' flag by default.  This causes the gcc-goto check script to fail
although some config would have '-fno-pic' flag in the KBUILD_CFLAGS.

This patch passes the KBUILD_CFLAGS to the check script so that the
script does not rely on the default config from different compilers.

When doing a kernel build with 'make -s', everything is silenced except
the objtool build.  That's because the tools tree support for silent
builds is some combination of missing and broken.

Three changes are needed to fix it:

- Makefile: propagate '-s' to the sub-make's MAKEFLAGS variable so the
  tools Makefiles can see it.

- tools/scripts/Makefile.include: fix the tools Makefiles' ability to
  recognize '-s'.  The MAKE_VERSION and MAKEFLAGS checks are copied from
  the top-level Makefile.  This silences the "DESCEND objtool" message.

- tools/build/Makefile.build: add support to the tools Build files for
  recognizing '-s'.  Again the MAKE_VERSION and MAKEFLAGS checks are
  copied from the top-level Makefile.  This silences all the object
  compile/link messages.

When building a specific target such as bzImage, modules aren't normally
built.  However if CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is enabled, no built modules
means none of the exported symbols are used and therefore they will all
be trimmed away from the final kernel.  A subsequent "make modules" will
fail because modpost cannot find the needed symbols for those modules in
the kernel binary.

Let's make sure modules are also built whenever CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS
is enabled and that the kernel binary is properly rebuilt accordingly.

So Sebastian turned off the PIE for kernel builds but that was too late
- Kbuild.include already uses KBUILD_CFLAGS and trying to disable gcc
options with, say cc-disable-warning, fails:

  gcc -D__KERNEL__ -Wall -Wundef -Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-trigraphs
  ...
  -Wno-sign-compare -fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables -Wframe-address -c -x c /dev/null -o .31392.tmp
  /dev/null:1:0: error: code model kernel does not support PIC mode

because that returns an error and we can't disable the warning. For
example in this case:

KBUILD_CFLAGS   += $(call cc-disable-warning,frame-address,)

which leads to gcc issuing all those warnings again.

So let's turn off PIE/PIC at the earliest possible moment, when we
declare KBUILD_CFLAGS so that cc-disable-warning picks it up too.

Also, we need the $(call cc-option ...) because -fno-PIE is supported
since gcc v3.4 and our lowest supported gcc version is 3.2 right now.

Traditionally, we have always had warnings about uninitialized variables
enabled, as this is part of -Wall, and generally a good idea [1], but it
also always produced false positives, mainly because this is a variation
of the halting problem and provably impossible to get right in all cases
[2].

Various people have identified cases that are particularly bad for false
positives, and in commit e74fc973 ("Turn off -Wmaybe-uninitialized
when building with -Os"), I turned off the warning for any build that
was done with CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE.  This drastically reduced the number
of false positive warnings in the default build but unfortunately had
the side effect of turning the warning off completely in 'allmodconfig'
builds, which in turn led to a lot of warnings (both actual bugs, and
remaining false positives) to go in unnoticed.

With commit 877417e6 ("Kbuild: change CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE
definition") enabled the warning again for allmodconfig builds in v4.7
and in v4.8-rc1, I had finally managed to address all warnings I get in
an ARM allmodconfig build and most other maybe-uninitialized warnings
for ARM randconfig builds.

However, commit 6e8d666e ("Disable "maybe-uninitialized" warning
globally") was merged at the same time and disabled it completely for
all configurations, because of false-positive warnings on x86 that I had
not addressed until then.  This caused a lot of actual bugs to get
merged into mainline, and I sent several dozen patches for these during
the v4.9 development cycle.  Most of these are actual bugs, some are for
correct code that is safe because it is only called under external
constraints that make it impossible to run into the case that gcc sees,
and in a few cases gcc is just stupid and finds something that can
obviously never happen.

I have now done a few thousand randconfig builds on x86 and collected
all patches that I needed to address every single warning I got (I can
provide the combined patch for the other warnings if anyone is
interested), so I hope we can get the warning back and let people catch
the actual bugs earlier.

This reverts the change to disable the warning completely and for now
brings it back at the "make W=1" level, so we can get it merged into
mainline without introducing false positives.  A follow-up patch enables
it on all levels unless some configuration option turns it off because
of false-positives.

Debian started to build the gcc with -fPIE by default so the kernel
build ends before it starts properly with:
|kernel/bounds.c:1:0: error: code model kernel does not support PIC mode

Also add to KBUILD_AFLAGS due to:

|gcc -Wp,-MD,arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32/.note.o.d … -mfentry -DCC_USING_FENTRY … vdso/vdso32/note.S
|arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32/note.S:1:0: sorry, unimplemented: -mfentry isn’t supported for 32-bit in combination with -fpic

Tagging it stable so it is possible to compile recent stable kernels as
well.

This affectively reverts commit 377ccbb4 ("Makefile: Mute warning
for __builtin_return_address(>0) for tracing only") because it turns out
that it really isn't tracing only - it's all over the tree.

We already also had the warning disabled separately for mm/usercopy.c
(which this commit also removes), and it turns out that we will also
want to disable it for get_lock_parent_ip(), that is used for at least
TRACE_IRQFLAGS.  Which (when enabled) ends up being all over the tree.

Steven Rostedt had a patch that tried to limit it to just the config
options that actually triggered this, but quite frankly, the extra
complexity and abstraction just isn't worth it.  We have never actually
had a case where the warning is actually useful, so let's just disable
it globally and not worry about it.

Move blackfin gptimers-example to samples and remove it from Documentation
Makefile. Update samples Kconfig and Makefile to build gptimers-example.

blackfin is the last CONFIG_BUILD_DOCSRC target in Documentation/Makefile.
Hence this patch also includes changes to remove CONFIG_BUILD_DOCSRC from
Makefile and lib/Kconfig.debug and updates VIDEO_PCI_SKELETON dependency
on BUILD_DOCSRC.

Documentation/Makefile is not deleted to avoid braking make htmldocs and
make distclean.

Introduce LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION option for architectures to
select to build with -ffunction-sections, -fdata-sections, and link
with --gc-sections. It requires some work (documented) to ensure all
unreferenced entrypoints are live, and requires toolchain and build
verification, so it is made a per-arch option for now.

On a random powerpc64le build, this yelds a significant size saving,
it boots and runs fine, but there is a lot I haven't tested as yet, so
these savings may be reduced if there are bugs in the link.
