Daniel Díaz df8caaf9ef tools build feature: Quote CC and CXX for their arguments
[ Upstream commit fa5c893181ed2ca2f96552f50073786d2cfce6c0 ]

When using a cross-compilation environment, such as OpenEmbedded,
the CC an CXX variables are set to something more than just a
command: there are arguments (such as --sysroot) that need to be
passed on to the compiler so that the right set of headers and
libraries are used.

For the particular case that our systems detected, CC is set to
the following:

  export CC="aarch64-linaro-linux-gcc  --sysroot=/oe/build/tmp/work/machine/perf/1.0-r9/recipe-sysroot"

Without quotes, detection is as follows:

  Auto-detecting system features:
  ...                         dwarf: [ OFF ]
  ...            dwarf_getlocations: [ OFF ]
  ...                         glibc: [ OFF ]
  ...                          gtk2: [ OFF ]
  ...                        libbfd: [ OFF ]
  ...                        libcap: [ OFF ]
  ...                        libelf: [ OFF ]
  ...                       libnuma: [ OFF ]
  ...        numa_num_possible_cpus: [ OFF ]
  ...                       libperl: [ OFF ]
  ...                     libpython: [ OFF ]
  ...                     libcrypto: [ OFF ]
  ...                     libunwind: [ OFF ]
  ...            libdw-dwarf-unwind: [ OFF ]
  ...                          zlib: [ OFF ]
  ...                          lzma: [ OFF ]
  ...                     get_cpuid: [ OFF ]
  ...                           bpf: [ OFF ]
  ...                        libaio: [ OFF ]
  ...                       libzstd: [ OFF ]
  ...        disassembler-four-args: [ OFF ]

  Makefile.config:414: *** No gnu/libc-version.h found, please install glibc-dev[el].  Stop.
  Makefile.perf:230: recipe for target 'sub-make' failed
  make[1]: *** [sub-make] Error 2
  Makefile:69: recipe for target 'all' failed
  make: *** [all] Error 2

With CC and CXX quoted, some of those features are now detected.

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

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.
