We no longer use this directory for generated files and
all architectures has moved their header files so no
symlink tricks are needed either.

Drop the symlink and drop the ARCH check.

If we really need to check that the SRCARCH has not changed
when we build a kernel we can add this check back - but then we will
find a more convenient way to store the info.

The simplest method was to add an extra asm-offsets.h
file in arch/$ARCH/include/asm that references the generated file.

We can now migrate the architectures one-by-one to reference
the generated file direct - and when done we can delete the
temporary arch/$ARCH/include/asm/asm-offsets.h file.

The namespace used in arch/$ARCH/include is different from
what is used in include/ except for the include/asm directory.

This patch gives the arch/$ARCH/include/asm directory priority
over include/asm.

When we add asm-offsets.h to arch/$ARCH/include/asm/ this
patch makes sure we pick up the arch specific version
and not the one we have in include/asm.

The situation with an asm-offsets.h file located in
both include/asm _and_ arch/$ARCH/include/asm will happen
when we move more files over to include/generated.

This happens because in some cases it is not practical
to rename all users so we simply add a file
in arch/$ARCH/include/asm that includes the generated version.

This is the solution we use for asm-offsets.h as an example.

If the user has an older version of objcopy, that can not handle
converting local symbols to global and vice versa, then some
functions will not be part of the dynamic function tracer. The current
code in recordmcount.pl will print a warning in this case. Unfortunately,
there exists lots of files that may have this issue with older objcopys
and this will cause a warning for every file compiled with this
issue.

This patch solves this overwhelming output by creating a
.tmp_quiet_recordmcount file on the first instance the warning is
encountered. The warning will not print if this file exists.

The temp file is deleted at the beginning of the compile to ensure that
the warning will happen once again on new compiles (because the issue
is still present).

Revert commit 57554334

It caused following issues:

- On architectures where ARCH= setting is used to select between
  32 and 64 bit this was no longer possible without "make mrproper"
- If ARCH was changed then kbuild refused to run "make mrproper"
  because ARCH had changed
- When CROSS_COMPILE was changed people were asked to run "make mrproper"
  but kbuild refused to run "make mrproper" because CROSS_COMPILE changed.
- Spaces in CROSS_COMPILE was not 'supported'
- If an non-existing ARCH= was used kbuild could get stuck

Lessons learned:
. Despite being simple and straghtforward people uses very different
  approaches when building the kernel.

. CROSS_COMPILE is sometimes used for ccache despite cache being
  only a CC frontend so one would have expected CC to be
  used for this purpose.

. And obviously this was not tested widely enough.

I'm skipping -rc2 because the -rc1 Makefile mistakenly said -rc2, so in
order to avoid confusion, I'm jumping from -rc1 to -rc3.  That way, when
'uname' (or an oops report) says 2.6.32-rc2, there's no confusion about
whether people perhaps meant -rc1 or -rc2.

Albin Tonnerre <albin.tonnerre@free-electrons.com> reported:

    Bash 4 filters out variables which contain a dot in them.
    This happends to be the case of CPPFLAGS_vmlinux.lds.
    This is rather unfortunate, as it now causes
    build failures when using SHELL=/bin/bash to compile,
    or when bash happens to be used by make (eg when it's /bin/sh)

Remove the common definition of CPPFLAGS_vmlinux.lds by
pushing relevant stuff to either Makefile.build or the
arch specific kernel/Makefile where we build the linker script.

This is also nice cleanup as we move the information out where
it is used.

Notes for the different architectures touched:

arm - we use an already exported symbol
cris - we use a config symbol aleady available
       [Not build tested]
mips - the jiffies complexity has moved to vmlinux.lds.S where we need it.
       Added a few variables to CPPFLAGS - they are only used by
       the linker script.
       [Not build tested]
powerpc - removed assignment that is not needed
          [not build tested]
sparc - simplified it using $(BITS)
um - introduced a few new exported variables to deal with this
xtensa - added options to CPP invocation
         [not build tested]

When building a kernel for a different architecture
kbuild requires the user always to specify ARCH and
CROSS_COMPILE on the command-line.

We use the asm symlink to detect if user forgets to
specify the correct ARCH value - but that symlink
is about to die. And we do now want to loose this check.

This patch save the settings of ARCH and CROSS_COMPILE
in two files named:

    include/generated/kernel.arch
    include/generated/kernel.cross

The settings are saved during "make *config" time
and always read.

If user try to change the settings we error out.

This works both for plain builds and for O=...
builds.

So now you can do:
$ mkdir sparc64
$ make O=sparc64 ARCH=sparc64 CROSS_COMPILE=sparc64-linux- defconfig
$ cd sparc64
$ make

Notice that you no longer need to tell kbuild
the settings of ARCH and CROSS_COMPILE when you type make
in the output directory.

Likewise for plain builds where you do not use O=...

Replace the use of CROSS_COMPILE to select a customized
installkernel script with the possibility to set INSTALLKERNEL
to select a custom installkernel script when running make:

    make INSTALLKERNEL=arm-installkernel install

With this patch we are now more consistent across
different architectures - they did not all support use
of CROSS_COMPILE.

The use of CROSS_COMPILE was a hack as this really belongs
to gcc/binutils and the installkernel script does not change
just because we change toolchain.

The use of CROSS_COMPILE caused troubles with an upcoming patch
that saves CROSS_COMPILE when a kernel is built - it would no
longer be installable.
[Thanks to Peter Z. for this hint]

This patch undos what Ian did in commit:

  0f8e2d62
  ("use ${CROSS_COMPILE}installkernel in arch/*/boot/install.sh")

The patch has been lightly tested on x86 only - but all changes
looks obvious.

Turning on this flag could prevent the compiler from optimising away
some "useless" checks for null pointers.  Such bugs can sometimes become
exploitable at compile time because of the -O2 optimisation.

See http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.1.2/gcc/Optimize-Options.html

An example that clearly shows this 'problem' is commit 6bf67672.

 static void __devexit agnx_pci_remove(struct pci_dev *pdev)
 {
     struct ieee80211_hw *dev = pci_get_drvdata(pdev);
-    struct agnx_priv *priv = dev->priv;
+    struct agnx_priv *priv;
     AGNX_TRACE;

     if (!dev)
         return;
+    priv = dev->priv;

By reverting this patch, and compile it with and without
-fno-delete-null-pointer-checks flag, we can see that the check for dev
is compiled away.

    call    printk  #
-   testq   %r12, %r12  # dev
-   je  .L94    #,
    movq    %r12, %rdi  # dev,

Clearly the 'fix' is to stop using dev before it is tested, but building
with -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks flag at least makes it harder to
abuse.

This causes kernel images that don't run init to completion with certain
broken gcc versions.

This fixes kernel bugzilla entry:
	http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13012

I suspect the gcc problem is this:
	http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28230

Fix the problem by using the -fno-strict-overflow flag instead, which
not only does not exist in the known-to-be-broken versions of gcc (it
was introduced later than fwrapv), but seems to be much less disturbing
to gcc too: the difference in the generated code by -fno-strict-overflow
are smaller (compared to using neither flag) than when using -fwrapv.

Some distributions have enabled the gcc flag -Wformat-security by default.
This results in a number of warnings about format arguments to functions,
sometimes in cases where fixing the warning is not likely to actually fix a
bug.  Instead of hand patching a dozens of places (possibly more) that produce
warnings that get ignored anyway we just turn off the flag in the Makefile.
