Matthias Kaehlcke 032a2c4f65 x86/build: Use __cc-option for boot code compiler options
cc-option is used to enable compiler options for the boot code if they
are available. The macro uses KBUILD_CFLAGS and KBUILD_CPPFLAGS for the
check, however these flags aren't used to build the boot code, in
consequence cc-option can yield wrong results. For example
-mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 is never set with a 64-bit compiler,
since the setting is only valid for 16 and 32-bit binaries. This
is also the case for 32-bit kernel builds, because the option -m32 is
added to KBUILD_CFLAGS after the assignment of REALMODE_CFLAGS.

Use __cc-option instead of cc-option for the boot mode options.
The macro receives the compiler options as parameter instead of using
KBUILD_C*FLAGS, for the boot code we pass REALMODE_CFLAGS.

Also use separate statements for the __cc-option checks instead
of performing them in the initial assignment of REALMODE_CFLAGS since
the variable is an input of the macro.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
