<title>kbuild: force all architectures except um to include mandatory-y</title>

Currently, every arch/*/include/uapi/asm/Kbuild explicitly includes
the common Kbuild.asm file. Factor out the duplicated include directives
to scripts/Makefile.asm-generic so that no architecture would opt out
of the mandatory-y mechanism.

um is not forced to include mandatory-y since it is a very exceptional
case which does not support UAPI.

<title>kbuild: Make NOSTDINC_FLAGS a simply expanded variable</title>

During a simple no-op (nothing changed) build I saw 39 invocations of
the C compiler with the argument "-print-file-name=include".  We don't
need to call the C compiler 39 times for this--one time will suffice.

Let's change NOSTDINC_FLAGS to a simply expanded variable to avoid
this since there doesn't appear to be any reason it should be
recursively expanded.

On my build this shaved ~400 ms off my "no-op" build.

Note that the recursive expansion seems to date back to the (really
old) commit e8f5bdb02ce0 ("[PATCH] Makefile include path ordering").
It's a little unclear to me if the point of that patch was to switch
the variable to be recursively expanded (which it did) or to avoid
directly assigning to NOSTDINC_FLAGS (AKA to switch to +=) because
someone else (out of tree?) was setting it.  I presume later since if
the only goal was to switch to recursive expansion the patch would
have just removed the ":".

<title>kbuild: add workaround for Debian make-kpkg</title>

<id>2b50f7ab63685cd247e32ad321f7338ed130d3d5</id>
<content type='text'>
Since commit 3812b8c5c5d5 ("kbuild: make -r/-R effective in top
Makefile for old Make versions"), make-kpkg is not working.

make-kpkg directly includes the top Makefile of Linux kernel, and
appends some debian_* targets.

  /usr/share/kernel-package/ruleset/kernel_version.mk:

    # Include the kernel makefile
    override dot-config := 1
    include Makefile
    dot-config := 1

I did not know the kernel Makefile was used in that way, and it is
hard to guarantee the behavior when the kernel Makefile is included
by another Makefile from a different project.

It looks like Debian Stretch stopped providing make-kpkg. Maybe it is
obsolete and being replaced with 'make deb-pkg' etc. but still widely
used.

This commit adds a workaround; if the top Makefile is included by
another Makefile, skip sub-make in order to make the main part visible.
'MAKEFLAGS += -rR' does not become effective for GNU Make &lt; 4.0, but
Debian/Ubuntu is already using newer versions.

The effect of this commit:

  Debian 8 (Jessie)  : Fixed
  Debian 9 (Stretch) : make-kpkg (kernel-package) is not provided
  Ubuntu 14.04 LTS   : NOT Fixed
  Ubuntu 16.04 LTS   : Fixed
  Ubuntu 18.04 LTS   : Fixed

This commit cannot fix Ubuntu 14.04 because it installs GNU Make 3.81,
but its support will end in Apr 2019, which is before the Linux v5.1
release.

I added warning so that nobody would try to include the top Makefile.

The flag '-Werror-implicit-function-declaration', present in GCC 2.95,

'-Werror=...' form.

So, use the equivalent '-Werror=implicit-function-declaration' instead.
