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.

<id>urn:sha1:7fd123e544886bf04fa853869efe55cb3f22d0c0</id>
<content type='text'>
Update the 64s GENERIC_CPU option. POWER4 support has been dropped, so
make that clear in the option name. The POWER5_CPU option is dropped
because it's uncommon, and GENERIC_CPU covers it.

-mtune= before power8 is dropped because the minimum gcc version
supports power8, and tuning is made consistent between big and little
endian.

A 970 option is added for PowerPC 970 / G5 because they still have a
user base, and -mtune=power8 does not generate good code for the 970.

This also updates the ISA versions document to add Power4/Power4+
because I didn't realise Power4+ used 2.01.

Big-endian GENERIC_CPU supports 970, but builds with -mcpu=power5.
POWER5 is ISA v2.02 whereas 970 is v2.01 plus Altivec. 2.02 added
the popcntb instruction which a compiler might use.

Use -mcpu=power4.

It will be used outside arch/powerpc, make it clear its a
powerpc configuration item.

And we already have CONFIG_PPC_E500MC, so that will make
it more consistent.

PPC_85xx is PPC32 only.
PPC_85xx always selects E500 and is the only PPC32 that
selects E500.
FSL_BOOKE is selected when E500 and PPC32 are selected.

So FSL_BOOKE is redundant with PPC_85xx.

Remove FSL_BOOKE.

And rename four files accordingly.

cpu_setup_fsl_booke.S is not renamed because it is linked to
PPC_FSL_BOOK3E and not to FSL_BOOKE as suggested by its name.

With GCC 12, corenet64_smp_defconfig leads to the following build errors:

  CC      arch/powerpc/kernel/irq.o
{standard input}: Assembler messages:

-mpcu=powerpc64 cannot be used anymore for book3e, it must be a booke CPU.

But then we get:

  CC      arch/powerpc/lib/xor_vmx.o
cc1: error: AltiVec not supported in this target

Altivec is not supported with -mcpu=e5500 so don't allow selection
of altivec when e5500 is selected.

<title>powerpc/32: Don't always pass -mcpu=powerpc to the compiler</title>

<id>urn:sha1:446cda1b21d9a6b3697fe399c6a3a00ff4a285f5</id>
<content type='text'>
Since commit 4bf4f42a2feb ("powerpc/kbuild: Set default generic
machine type for 32-bit compile"), when building a 32 bits kernel
with a bi-arch version of GCC, or when building a book3s/32 kernel,
the option -mcpu=powerpc is passed to GCC at all time, relying on it
being eventually overriden by a subsequent -mcpu=xxxx.

But when building the same kernel with a 32 bits only version of GCC,
that is not done, relying on gcc being built with the expected default
CPU.

This logic has two problems. First, it is a bit fragile to rely on
whether the GCC version is bi-arch or not, because today we can have
bi-arch versions of GCC configured with a 32 bits default. Second,
there are some versions of GCC which don't support -mcpu=powerpc,
for instance for e500 SPE-only versions.

So, stop relying on this approximative logic and allow the user to
decide whether he/she wants to use the toolchain's default CPU or if
he/she wants to set one, and allow only possible CPUs based on the
selected target.
