If CONFIG_AUTO_LOCALVERSION is set, the user is using a git-based tree, and the
current HEAD is not referred to by any tags in .git/refs/tags/, append -g and
the first 8 characters of the commit to the version string. This makes it
easier to use git-bisect, and/or to do a daily build, without trampling on your
older, working builds, or accidentally setting up conflicting sets of modules.

make TAGS does not make source code tags for emacs. It instead
returns an error than "etags -" isn't valid. The problem is
easily remedied.

During last phase of the build the following message were displayed:
/bin/sh: +@: command not found
This message appears due to slightly changed semantics
of cmd and if_changed_rule.
The easy fix was to insert a dummy command first in rule_ksym_ld.
The alternative was to redo part of this processing in the top-level
Makefile - a volatile area that I try to avoid.

Kbuild.include is a placeholder for definitions originally present in
both the top-level Makefile and scripts/Makefile.build.
There were a slight difference in the filechk definition, so the most videly
used version was kept and usr/Makefile was adopted for this syntax.

There was only two users left of descend. Fix them so they
use $(clean)= and $(build)=.

-Wundef caused warnings in the bison generated code in kconfig.
Updating to a newer bison (1.875d) did not fix it. The alternatives
was to correct the autogenerated code or drop -Wundef.
For now -Wundef is dropped from HOSTCFLAGS.

A recent change to the aic scsi driver removed two defines to detect
endianness. cpp handles undefined strings as 0. As a result, the test turned
into #if 0 == 0 and the wrong code was selected.
Adding -Wundef to global CFLAGS will catch such errors.

When running depmod to check for the correct version number, extra
output we don't need to see, such as "depmod: QM_MODULES: Function not
implemented" may show up. Redirect stderr to /dev/null as the version
information that we do care about comes to stdout.

We're having the following situation: There are user-space applications
that include kernel headers directly. With a completely unconfigured
/usr/src/linux tree, including most headers fails because essential
files are not there:
include/asm
include/linux/autoconf.h
include/linux/version.h
So we create these files. On the other hand, we want to use
/usr/src/linux as read-only source for building kernels or additional
modules. Now when building a kernel with a separate output directory
(O=), there is a check in the main makefile for the include/asm symlink.
There is no real need for this check: if we ensure that
$(objdir)/include/asm is always created as the patch does,
$(srctree)/include/asm becomes irrelevant.

I have a single source tree which I cross compile for a couple of
different architectures using ARHC=foo O=blah etc.
The existing cscope target is very handy but only indexes the current
$(ARCH), which is a pain since inevitably I'm interested in the other
one at any given time ;-). This patch allows me to pass a list of
architectures for cscope to index. e.g.
make ALLSOURCE_ARCHS="i386 arm" cscope
This change also works for etags etc, and I presume it is just as useful
there.

I tried the Linux Makefile 'make cscope' target, and found that the
generated database is not compatible with 'cscope.el' under XEmacs.
The thing is that 'cscope.el' does not allow setting the command line
options to the 'cscope' commands it runs, and it errors with a message
about the options not matching the ones used to generate the index.
It turns out the cscope designers already thought of this. The
options can be written into the "cscope.files". The included patch
moves the "-q" and "-k" options from the 'cmd_cscope' to the
'cmd_cscope-file', echoing them into the top of the files listing.
Now the index is generated with the "-q" option, and when 'cscope.el'
performs it's search, it uses that argument as well. Lookups are fast
and everyone is happy.

Using the syntax:
make dir/module.ko
kbuild now allows one to build a module including the final link stage.
This is usefull when one only wants to compile a single module and thus do
not have to wait until a full kernel has finished compiling. Tested by:
