No, I didn't want to do this, but we had more stuff go in after -rc8
than we had in the previous -rc. Gaah.

Getting there...

Sam Ravnborg pointed out that Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.txt already
says this is what it's for.  This patch makes the reality live up to the
documentation.  This fixes the problem of LDFLAGS_BUILD_ID getting into too
many places.

This change passes the --build-id when linking the kernel and when linking
modules, if ld supports it.  This is a new GNU ld option that synthesizes an
ELF note section inside the read-only data.  The note in this section contains
unique identifying bits called the "build ID", which are generated so as to be
different for any two linked ELF files that aren't identical.  The build ID
can be recovered from stripped files, memory dumps, etc.  and used to look up
the original program built, locate debuginfo or other details or history
associated with it.  For normal program linking, the compiler passes
--build-id to ld by default, but the option is needed when using ld directly
as we do.

Previously we did do the check on the .o files used to link
vmlinux but that failed to find questionable references across
the .o files.
Create a dedicated vmlinux.o file used only for section mismatch checks
that uses the defualt linker script so section does not get renamed.

The vmlinux.o may later be used as part of the the final link of vmlinux
but for now it is used fo section mismatch only.
For a defconfig build this is instant but for an allyesconfig this
add two minutes to a full build (that anyways takes ~2 hours).

This reverts commit c8fdd247.

It turns out the kernel was correct, and the gcc complaint was a gcc
bug.  The preferred stack boundary is expressed not in bytes, but in the
the log2() of the preferred boundary, so "-mpreferred-stack-boundary=2"
is in fact exactly what we want, but a gcc that is compiled for x86-64
will consider it an error (because the 64-bit calling sequence says that
the stack should be 16-byte aligned) even if we are then using "-m32" to
generate 32-bit code.

.. close the merge window

Most system calls seems to get added to i386 first. This patch
automatically generates a warning for any new system call which is
implemented on i386 but not the architecture currently being compiled.
On PowerPC at the moment, for example, it results in these warnings:
init/missing_syscalls.h:935:3: warning: #warning syscall sync_file_range not implemented
init/missing_syscalls.h:947:3: warning: #warning syscall getcpu not implemented
init/missing_syscalls.h:950:3: warning: #warning syscall epoll_pwait not implemented

The file scripts/checksyscalls.sh list a number of legacy system calls
that are ignored because they only makes sense on i386 systems.

Move tags extracted from the ARCH and include/ sub-trees ahead of
those from device drivers, so that the former will appear first
during searches.

Saves user time during interactive searches for certain patterns
that happen to find unwanted matches in driver files.

Example in emacs:
	 "M-x find-tag PAGE_SIZE"
	 "M-1 M-." (repeated until definition from asm-i386/page.h appears)

The kernel only supports gcc 3.2+ now so it doesn't make sense
anymore to explicitely check for options this compiler version
already has.

This actually fixes a bug. The -mprefered-stack-boundary check
never worked because gcc rightly complains

  CC      arch/i386/kernel/asm-offsets.s
cc1: -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 is not between 4 and 12

We just never saw the error because of cc-options.
I changed it to 4 to actually work.

Tested by compiling i386 and x86-64 defconfig with gcc 3.2.

Should speed up the build time a tiny bit and improve
stack usage on i386 slightly.

Too many changes for comfort since -rc1.  Some missed merges, and some
just annoyingly big fixes since.  This is not how an -rc2 should look.
Need to really calm things down!

Add new headers_check_all target for checking all arches in one go.

Useful for distros (and people with too much time on their hands) that support
a ton of architectures, headers_check_all is to headers_check as
