When doing make O=<subdir>, use '..' to refer to the source tree. This
allows for more readable compiler messages, and, more importantly, it
sets the VPATH to '..', so filenames in WARN_ON() etc. will be shorter.

When not using O=, $(srctree) refers to the same directory as
$(objtree), so we can set it to '.' as well. This makes the default
include path more compact and results in more readable messages from the
compiler. The only case where we need the absolute path is when creating
the 'source' symlink in /lib/modules.

The main Makefile sets its working directory to the object tree and
never changes it again. Therefore, we can use '.' instead of the
absolute path. The only case where we need the absolute path is when
creating the 'build' symlink in /lib/modules.

Kbuild is supposed to support mixed targets. (%config and build targets)
But "make all" did nothing if it was run with configuration targets.
For example,
$ LANG=C make defconfig all
HOSTCC scripts/basic/fixdep
HOSTCC scripts/kconfig/conf.o
SHIPPED scripts/kconfig/zconf.tab.c
SHIPPED scripts/kconfig/zconf.lex.c
SHIPPED scripts/kconfig/zconf.hash.c
HOSTCC scripts/kconfig/zconf.tab.o
HOSTLD scripts/kconfig/conf
*** Default configuration is based on 'x86_64_defconfig'
#
# configuration written to .config
#
make: Nothing to be done for `all'.
This commits allows "make %config all" and makes sure
mixed targets are built one by one in the given order.

W=... provides extra gcc checks.
Having such code in scripts/Makefile.build results in the same flags
being added to KBUILD_CFLAGS multiple times becuase
scripts/Makefile.build is invoked every time Kbuild descends into
the subdirectories.
Since the top Makefile is already too cluttered, this commit moves
all of extra gcc check stuff to a new file scripts/Makefile.extrawarn,
which is included from the top Makefile.

"Here is the non-critical part of kbuild:
- One bogus coccinelle check removed, one check fixed not to suggest
the obsolete PTR_RET macro
- scripts/tags.sh does not index the generated *.mod.c files
- new objdiff tool to list differences between two versions of an
object file
- A fix for scripts/bootgraph.pl"

Coccicheck: Remove memcpy to struct assignment test
scripts/tags.sh: Ignore *.mod.c
Add support to toplevel Makefile for compiling with clang, both for
HOSTCC and CC. Use cc-option to prevent gcc option from breaking clang, and
from clang options from breaking gcc.
Clang 3.4 semantics are the same as gcc semantics for unsupported flags. For
unsupported warnings clang 3.4 returns true but shows a warning and gcc shows
a warning and returns false.

objdiff is useful when doing large code cleanups. For example, when
removing checkpatch warnings and errors from new drivers in the staging
tree.
objdiff can be used in conjunction with a git rebase to confirm that
each commit made no changes to the resulting object code. It has the
same return values as diff(1).
This was written specifically to support adding the skein and threefish
cryto drivers to the staging tree. I needed a programmatic way to
confirm that commits changing >90% of the lines didn't inadvertently
change the code.
Temporary files (objdump output) are stored in
/path/to/linux/.tmp_objdiff

Pull devicetree changes from Grant Likely:
"Updates to devicetree core code. This branch contains the following
notable changes:
- add reserved memory binding
- make struct device_node a kobject and remove legacy
/proc/device-tree
- ePAPR conformance fixes
- update in-kernel DTC copy to version v1.4.0
- preparatory changes for dynamic device tree overlays
- minor bug fixes and documentation changes
The most significant change in this branch is the conversion of struct
device_node to be a kobject that is exposed via sysfs and removal of
the old /proc/device-tree code. This simplifies the device tree
handling code and tightens up the lifecycle on device tree nodes.

Kbuild supports saving output files in a separate directory.
But the build directory must be created beforehand. For example,
$ mkdir -p dir/to/store/output/files
$ make O=dir/to/store/output/files defconfig
Creating a build directory automatically would be useful.

As of v3.7, the UAPI changes relocated headers around such that the
kernel version header lived in a new place.
If a person is bisecting and if you go back to pre-UAPI days,
you will create an include/linux/version.h -- then if you checkout a
post-UAPI kernel, and even run "make distclean" it still won't delete
that old version file. So you get a situation like this:
$ grep -R LINUX_VERSION_CODE include/
include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h:#define LINUX_VERSION_CODE 200192
include/linux/version.h:#define LINUX_VERSION_CODE 132646
The value in that second line is representative of a v2.6.38 version.
And it will be sourced/used, hence leading to strange behaviours, such
as drivers/staging content (which typically hasn't been purged of version
ifdefs) failing to build.
Since it is a subtle mode of failure, lets always clobber the old
file when doing a distclean.
