The variable CFLAGS is a wellknown variable and the usage by
kbuild may result in unexpected behaviour.
On top of that several people over time has asked for a way to
pass in additional flags to gcc.
This patch replace use of CFLAGS with KBUILD_CFLAGS all over the
tree and enabling one to use:
make CFLAGS=...
to specify additional gcc commandline options.
One usecase is when trying to find gcc bugs but other
use cases has been requested too.
Patch was tested on following architectures:
alpha, arm, i386, x86_64, mips, sparc, sparc64, ia64, m68k
Test was simple to do a defconfig build, apply the patch and check
that nothing got rebuild.

This patch fixes the kernel entry point address of vmlinux.
The m32r kernel entry address is 0x08002000 (physical).
But, so far, the ENTRY point written in vmlinux.lds.S was not point
the correct kernel entry address.
(before fix)
$ objdump -x vmlinux
vmlinux: file format elf32-m32r-linux
vmlinux
architecture: m32r2, flags 0x00000112:

This fix also remedies the following GDB error message (of gdb-6.4 or after)
at the first operation of kernel debugging:
"Previous frame identical to this frame (corrupt stack?)".

Trivial conflict in arch/ppc/boot/Makefile manually fixed up
The kbuild system takes advantage of an incorrect behavior in GNU make.
Once this behavior is fixed, all files in the kernel rebuild every time,
even if nothing has changed. This patch ensures kbuild works with both
the incorrect and correct behaviors of GNU make.
For more details on the incorrect behavior, see:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-make/2006-03/msg00003.html
Changes in this patch:
- Keep all targets that are to be marked .PHONY in a variable, PHONY.
- Add .PHONY: $(PHONY) to mark them properly.
- Remove any $(PHONY) files from the $? list when determining whether
targets are up-to-date or not.

Add -O2 option to AFLAGS to enable asm code optimization for m32r.
On m32r gas, "-m32r2 -O" option enables assembler's parallel code
generation optimization for M32R2 ISA as a default. So, "-no-parallel"
option is required explicitly for a cpu core with single instuction
issuing, for example, VDEC2.

We do _not_ need "sparse" in sparse arguments ;-)
What we do need is __BIG_ENDIAN__; right now unconditional, when m32r
starts using CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN, we'll need to adjust.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
