Pull Kbuild updates from Masahiro Yamada:

 - Remove potentially incomplete targets when Kbuid is interrupted by
   SIGINT etc in case GNU Make may miss to do that when stderr is piped
   to another program.

 - Rewrite the single target build so it works more correctly.

 - Fix rpm-pkg builds with V=1.

 - List top-level subdirectories in ./Kbuild.

 - Ignore auto-generated __kstrtab_* and __kstrtabns_* symbols in
   kallsyms.

 - Avoid two different modules in lib/zstd/ having shared code, which
   potentially causes building the common code as build-in and modular
   back-and-forth.

 - Unify two modpost invocations to optimize the build process.

 - Remove head-y syntax in favor of linker scripts for placing
   particular sections in the head of vmlinux.

 - Bump the minimal GNU Make version to 3.82.

 - Clean up misc Makefiles and scripts.

Kbuild puts the objects listed in head-y at the head of vmlinux.
Conventionally, we do this for head*.S, which contains the kernel entry
point.

A counter approach is to control the section order by the linker script.
Actually, the code marked as __HEAD goes into the ".head.text" section,
which is placed before the normal ".text" section.

I do not know if both of them are needed. From the build system
perspective, head-y is not mandatory. If you can achieve the proper code
placement by the linker script only, it would be cleaner.

I collected the current head-y objects into head-object-list.txt. It is
a whitelist. My hope is it will be reduced in the long run.

<content type='text'>
The objects placed at the head of vmlinux need special treatments:

 - arch/$(SRCARCH)/Makefile adds them to head-y in order to place
   them before other archives in the linker command line.

 - arch/$(SRCARCH)/kernel/Makefile adds them to extra-y instead of
   obj-y to avoid them going into built-in.a.

This commit gets rid of the latter.

Create vmlinux.a to collect all the objects that are unconditionally
linked to vmlinux. The objects listed in head-y are moved to the head
of vmlinux.a by using 'ar m'.

With this, arch/$(SRCARCH)/kernel/Makefile can consistently use obj-y
for builtin objects.

There is no *.o that is directly linked to vmlinux. Drop unneeded code
in scripts/clang-tools/gen_compile_commands.py.

$(AR) mPi needs 'T' to workaround the llvm-ar bug. The fix was suggested
by Nathan Chancellor [1].

Some architectures define their own arch_test_bit and they also need
arch_test_bit_acquire, otherwise they won't compile.  We also clean up
the code by using the generic test_bit if that is equivalent to the
arch-specific version.

I was too naive in just including &lt;asm-generic/io.h&gt; into
hexagon: one has to specify defines for every call that uses
a (static) inline or this will not work.

Fix it up by providing proper defines for all shorthands that
hexagon provides.

Compile-tested with hexagon LLVM which is the only working cross
compiler for hexagon ATM after commenting out the
-fno-inline-functions-called-once switch which isn't working
with LLVM.

Use the newly added callback for accelerated noinc MMIO
to provide writesb, writesw, writesl, writesq, readsb, readsw,
readsl and readsq.

A special quirk is needed to deal with big endian regmaps: there
are no accelerated operations defined for big endian, so fall
back to calling the big endian operations itereatively for this
case.

The Hexagon architecture turns out to have an incomplete
&lt;asm/io.h&gt;: writesb() is not implemented. Fix this by doing
what other architectures do: include &lt;asm-generic/io.h&gt; into
the &lt;asm/io.h&gt; file.
