Currently the CPU subtype options are cluttering up arch/sh/Kconfig somewhat.
Given that, this moves all of that in to its own arch/sh/mm/Kconfig. Things
like cache configuration are also moved to this new location.
This also adds support for strict CPU tuning on newer cores, which requires
the addition of as-option.

The command 'make all modules_install install' would fail
in a virgin tree - pointing at a non-existing directory under
/lib/modules/xxx
KERNELRELEASE is part of MODLIB and we need to create .kernelrelease
before we can properly evaluate KERNELRELEASE,
Changing MODLIB to the recursively expanded flavor let it pick up
the correct KERNELRELEASE value.

To enable 'make kernelrelease' earlier now create .kernelrelease when
one of the *config targets are used.
Also introduce KERNELVERSION - only user is kconfig.
KERNELVERSION was needed to display kernel version in menuconfig -
KERNELRELEASE is not valid until configuration has completed.
kconfig files modified to use KERNELVERSION.

The way multiple targets was handled with make O=...
broke because for each high-level target make spawned
a parallel make resulting in a broken build.

This makes ARCH=powerpc the default on 32-bit powerpc machines,
where uname -m returns ppc, as well as on 64-bit powerpc machines.
Most people who would be likely to build their own kernels on
32-bit powerpc machines would be using powermacs or CHRP machines,
both of which are supported with ARCH=powerpc now. Embedded ppc
developers whose ports haven't been moved over to arch/powerpc
yet will have to explicitly set ARCH=ppc now.

Eric Sandeen <sandeen@sgi.com> pointed out that it is usefull to have
access to VERSION, PATCHLEVEL, SUBLEVEL in external modules, and gooling
a litte confirmed this.
So re-export them.
Usage within the kernel is still discouraged but possible.

To avoid running setlocalversion as root no longer (re-)define
KERNELRELEASE for each run. With this patch KERNELRELEASE is
only re-read when we do an actual kernel build.
Rationale behind this is "do as little as possible" when executing
make install - as root!
A new file named .kernelrelease is strored in the root of the kernel
tree containing the actual version string.
So when we use do a kernel build the .kernelrelease file will be updated.
But in all other situations it is left as-is.
To make it more visible the kernel now prints out the version being build.
Sample:
Building kernel 2.6.15-g63b794bf-dirty
...
...
The patch also un-exports VERSION PATCHLEVEL SUBLEVEL EXTRAVERSION LOCALVERSION
since all users of these are anyway broken - and none is left in the
tree.

If the final linking of vmlinux fails, the file .old_version are left

If the file .kconfig.d is missing then make sure to run
'make silentoldconfig', since we have no way to detect if
a Kconfig file has been updated.
-kconfig.d is created by kconfig and is removed as part
of 'make clean' so the situation is likely to occur in reality.

This is wrong. KERNELRELEASE depends on CONFIG_LOCALVERSION, thus you
need .config.

Hey, for no other reason than the fact that I'll be off-line for a
week.
Of course, I could force everybody to just use git (and when I'm emperor
of the world, don't think I won't!), but it seems some people want to
just test official releases. Even if they are just -rc's.
By the time I'm back, Andrew will have fixed all my bugs, and I'll
release it as 2.6.15 and take all the credit.
Mwahahahaaa
