The variable CPPFLAGS is a wellknown variable and the usage by
kbuild may result in unexpected behaviour.

This patch replace use of CPPFLAGS with KBUILD_CPPFLAGS all over the
tree and enabling one to use:
make CPPFLAGS=...
to specify additional CPP commandline options.

Patch was tested on following architectures:
alpha, arm, i386, x86_64, mips, sparc, sparc64, ia64, m68k, s390

The variable CFLAGS is a wellknown variable and the usage by
kbuild may result in unexpected behaviour.
On top of that several people over time has asked for a way to
pass in additional flags to gcc.

This patch replace use of CFLAGS with KBUILD_CFLAGS all over the
tree and enabling one to use:
make CFLAGS=...
to specify additional gcc commandline options.

One usecase is when trying to find gcc bugs but other
use cases has been requested too.

Patch was tested on following architectures:
alpha, arm, i386, x86_64, mips, sparc, sparc64, ia64, m68k

Test was simple to do a defconfig build, apply the patch and check
that nothing got rebuild.

Current status of APUS:
- arch/powerpc/: removed in 2.6.23
- arch/ppc/: marked BROKEN since 2 years

This therefore removes the remaining parts of APUS support from
arch/ppc, include/asm-ppc, arch/powerpc and include/asm-powerpc.

Towards the goal of having arch/powerpc not build anything over in arch/ppc
move math-emu over.  Also, killed some references to arch/ppc/ in the

<title>ppc: Remove CHRP, POWER3 and POWER4 support from arch/ppc</title>

<id>0a26b1364f14852bc9a51db0ca63c5250c775627</id>
<content type='text'>
32-bit CHRP machines are now supported only in arch/powerpc, as are
all 64-bit PowerPC processors.  This means that we don't use
Open Firmware on any platform in arch/ppc any more.

This makes PReP support a single-platform option like every other
platform support option in arch/ppc now, thus CONFIG_PPC_MULTIPLATFORM
is gone from arch/ppc.  CONFIG_PPC_PREP is the option that selects
PReP support and is generally what has replaced
CONFIG_PPC_MULTIPLATFORM within arch/ppc.

_machine is all but dead now, being #defined to 0.

Updated Makefiles, comments and Kconfig options generally to reflect
these changes.

<title>powerpc: Unify the 32 and 64 bit idle loops</title>

<content type='text'>
This unifies the 32-bit (ARCH=ppc and ARCH=powerpc) and 64-bit idle
loops.  It brings over the concept of having a ppc_md.power_save
function from 32-bit to ARCH=powerpc, which lets us get rid of
native_idle().  With this we will also be able to simplify the idle
handling for pSeries and cell.

<title>kbuild: change kbuild to not rely on incorrect GNU make behavior</title>

<id>4f1933620f57145212cdbb1ac6ce099eeeb21c5a</id>
<content type='text'>
The kbuild system takes advantage of an incorrect behavior in GNU make.
Once this behavior is fixed, all files in the kernel rebuild every time,
even if nothing has changed.  This patch ensures kbuild works with both
the incorrect and correct behaviors of GNU make.

For more details on the incorrect behavior, see:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-make/2006-03/msg00003.html

Changes in this patch:
  - Keep all targets that are to be marked .PHONY in a variable, PHONY.
  - Add .PHONY: $(PHONY) to mark them properly.
  - Remove any $(PHONY) files from the $? list when determining whether
    targets are up-to-date or not.

This was causing some ordering problems.  Remove the up-front evaluation
and just revaluate the compiler version each time we need it.

(The up-front evaluation was problematic because some architectures modify
the value of $(CC)).
