This reverts commit c8fdd24725.
It turns out the kernel was correct, and the gcc complaint was a gcc
bug. The preferred stack boundary is expressed not in bytes, but in the
the log2() of the preferred boundary, so "-mpreferred-stack-boundary=2"
is in fact exactly what we want, but a gcc that is compiled for x86-64
will consider it an error (because the 64-bit calling sequence says that
the stack should be 16-byte aligned) even if we are then using "-m32" to
generate 32-bit code.

Most system calls seems to get added to i386 first. This patch
automatically generates a warning for any new system call which is
implemented on i386 but not the architecture currently being compiled.
On PowerPC at the moment, for example, it results in these warnings:
init/missing_syscalls.h:935:3: warning: #warning syscall sync_file_range not implemented
init/missing_syscalls.h:947:3: warning: #warning syscall getcpu not implemented
init/missing_syscalls.h:950:3: warning: #warning syscall epoll_pwait not implemented
The file scripts/checksyscalls.sh list a number of legacy system calls
that are ignored because they only makes sense on i386 systems.

The kernel only supports gcc 3.2+ now so it doesn't make sense
anymore to explicitely check for options this compiler version
already has.
This actually fixes a bug. The -mprefered-stack-boundary check
never worked because gcc rightly complains
CC arch/i386/kernel/asm-offsets.s
cc1: -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 is not between 4 and 12
We just never saw the error because of cc-options.
I changed it to 4 to actually work.
Tested by compiling i386 and x86-64 defconfig with gcc 3.2.
Should speed up the build time a tiny bit and improve
stack usage on i386 slightly.

compile.h is created super-late in the build. But proc_misc.c want to include
it, and it's generally not sane to have a header file in include/linux be
created at the end of the build: it's either not present or, worse, wrong for
most of the build.
So the patch arranges for compile.h to be built at the start of the build
process. It also consolidates the compile.h rules with those for version.h
and utsname.h, so they all get built together.
I hope. My chances of having got this right are about 2%.

This changes the dwarf2 unwinder to do a binary search for CIEs
instead of a linear work. The linker is unfortunately not
able to build a proper lookup table at link time, instead it creates
one at runtime as soon as the bootmem allocator is usable (so you'll continue
using the linear lookup for the first [hopefully] few calls).

`make headers_check' wants to go and write stuff in /lib/modules, which
requires root, whic is unfortunate.
In fact, there's no _particular_ reason for headers_install to put it there
either -- it can go into a subdirectory of the build tree in both cases.
It's not intended to go directly into /usr/include, which is why we didn't
put it there -- and we certainly don't want people screwing around with
symlinking to it. It's for distributors to take away and do stuff with, so
leaving it in $(objtree) is fine, even in the headers_install case.
I picked $(objtree)/usr/include but I have no _particular_ preference
for that; it just seemed reasonable.

Here is a patch that adds a new -T option to genksyms for generating dumps of
the type definition that makes up the symbol version hashes. This allows to
trace modversion changes back to what caused them. The dump format is the
name of the type defined, followed by its definition (which is almost C):
s#list_head struct list_head { s#list_head * next , * prev ; }
The s#, u#, e#, and t# prefixes stand for struct, union, enum, and typedef.
The exported symbols do not define types, and thus do not have an x# prefix:
nfs4_acl_get_whotype int nfs4_acl_get_whotype ( char * , t#u32 )
The symbol type defintion of a single file can be generated with:
make fs/jbd/journal.symtypes
If KBUILD_SYMTYPES is defined, all the *.symtypes of all object files that
export symbols are generated.
The single *.symtypes files can be combined into a single file after a kernel
build with a script like the following:
for f in $(find -name '*.symtypes' | sort); do
f=${f#./}
echo "/* ${f%.symtypes}.o */"
cat $f
echo
done \
| sed -e '\:UNKNOWN:d' \
-e 's:[,;] }:}:g' \
-e 's:\([[({]\) :\1:g' \
-e 's: \([])},;]\):\1:g' \
-e 's: $::' \
$f \
| awk '
/^.#/ { if (defined[$1] == $0) {
print $1
next
}
defined[$1] = $0
}
{ print }
'
When the kernel ABI changes, diffing individual *.symtype files, or the
combined files, against each other will show which symbol changes caused the
ABI changes. This can save a tremendous amount of time.

Add option for stripping modules while installing them.
This function adds support for stripping modules while they are being
installed. CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL (which will probably become more
popular as developers use kdump) causes the size of the installed
modules to grow by a factor of 9 or so.
Some kernel package systems solve this problem by stripping the debug
information from /lib/modules after running "make modules_install",
but that may not work for people who are installing directly into
/lib/modules --- root partitions that were sized to handle 16 megs
worth of modules may not be quite so happy with 145 megs of modules,
so the "make modules_install" never succeeds.
This patch allows such users to request modules_install to strip the
modules as they are installed.
