Merge branch 'kbuild' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild
Pull kbuild updates from Michal Marek: - new option CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS which does a two-pass build and unexports symbols which are not used in the current config [Nicolas Pitre] - several kbuild rule cleanups [Masahiro Yamada] - warning option adjustments for gcov etc [Arnd Bergmann] - a few more small fixes * 'kbuild' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild: (31 commits) kbuild: move -Wunused-const-variable to W=1 warning level kbuild: fix if_change and friends to consider argument order kbuild: fix adjust_autoksyms.sh for modules that need only one symbol kbuild: fix ksym_dep_filter when multiple EXPORT_SYMBOL() on the same line gcov: disable -Wmaybe-uninitialized warning gcov: disable tree-loop-im to reduce stack usage gcov: disable for COMPILE_TEST Kbuild: disable 'maybe-uninitialized' warning for CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES Kbuild: change CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE definition kbuild: forbid kernel directory to contain spaces and colons kbuild: adjust ksym_dep_filter for some cmd_* renames kbuild: Fix dependencies for final vmlinux link kbuild: better abstract vmlinux sequential prerequisites kbuild: fix call to adjust_autoksyms.sh when output directory specified kbuild: Get rid of KBUILD_STR kbuild: rename cmd_as_s_S to cmd_cpp_s_S kbuild: rename cmd_cc_i_c to cmd_cpp_i_c kbuild: drop redundant "PHONY += FORCE" kbuild: delete unnecessary "@:" kbuild: mark help target as PHONY ...
