[ Upstream commit 87c4e1459e80bf65066f864c762ef4dc932fad4b ]

After commit d5c8d6e0fa61 ("kbuild: Update assembler calls to use proper
flags and language target"), which updated as-instr to use the
'assembler-with-cpp' language option, the Kbuild version of as-instr
always fails internally for arch/arm with

  &lt;command-line&gt;: fatal error: asm/unified.h: No such file or directory
  compilation terminated.

because '-include' flags are now taken into account by the compiler
driver and as-instr does not have '$(LINUXINCLUDE)', so unified.h is not
found.

This went unnoticed at the time of the Kbuild change because the last
use of as-instr in Kbuild that arch/arm could reach was removed in 5.7
by commit 541ad0150ca4 ("arm: Remove 32bit KVM host support") but a
stable backport of the Kbuild change to before that point exposed this
potential issue if one were to be reintroduced.

Follow the general pattern of '-include' paths throughout the tree and
make unified.h absolute using '$(srctree)' to ensure KBUILD_AFLAGS can
be used independently.

Pull Kbuild updates from Masahiro Yamada:

 - Remove potentially incomplete targets when Kbuid is interrupted by
   SIGINT etc in case GNU Make may miss to do that when stderr is piped
   to another program.

 - Rewrite the single target build so it works more correctly.

 - Fix rpm-pkg builds with V=1.

 - List top-level subdirectories in ./Kbuild.

 - Ignore auto-generated __kstrtab_* and __kstrtabns_* symbols in
   kallsyms.

 - Avoid two different modules in lib/zstd/ having shared code, which
   potentially causes building the common code as build-in and modular
   back-and-forth.

 - Unify two modpost invocations to optimize the build process.

 - Remove head-y syntax in favor of linker scripts for placing
   particular sections in the head of vmlinux.

 - Bump the minimal GNU Make version to 3.82.

 - Clean up misc Makefiles and scripts.

Kbuild puts the objects listed in head-y at the head of vmlinux.
Conventionally, we do this for head*.S, which contains the kernel entry
point.

A counter approach is to control the section order by the linker script.
Actually, the code marked as __HEAD goes into the ".head.text" section,
which is placed before the normal ".text" section.

I do not know if both of them are needed. From the build system
perspective, head-y is not mandatory. If you can achieve the proper code
placement by the linker script only, it would be cleaner.

I collected the current head-y objects into head-object-list.txt. It is
a whitelist. My hope is it will be reduced in the long run.

When building with an arm-*-uclinuxfdpiceabi toolchain, the FDPIC ABI is
enabled by default but should not be used to build the kernel.
Therefore, pass -mno-fdpic if supported by the compiler.

There is only one plat-* directory left, and the MACHINE variable is
only used for the mach/*.h header path.

Simplify this by removing the checks for ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM and
ARM_SINGLE_ARMV7M, and just adding the include directories for the
remaining three platforms manually.

There are a number of old Makefile.boot files that remain from the
multiplatform conversion, and three that are still in use.

These provide the "ZRELADDR", "PARAMS_PHYS" and "INITRD_PHYS" values
that are platform specific. It turns out that we can generally just
derive this from information that is available elsewhere:

- ZRELADDR is normally detected at runtime with the
  CONFIG_AUTO_ZRELADDR flag, but also needed to be passed to
  for 'make uImage'. In a multiplatform kernel, one always has
  to pass this as the $(LOADADDR) variable, but in the StrongARM
  kernels we can derive it from the sum of $(CONFIG_PHYS_OFFSET)
  and $(TEXT_OFFSET) that are already known.

- PARAMS_PHYS and INITRD_PHYS are only used for bootpImage, which
  in turn is only used for the pre-ATAGS 'param_struct' based boot
  interface on StrongARM based machines with old boot loaders.
  They can both be derived from CONFIG_PHYS_OFFSET and a machine
  specific offset for the initrd, so all of the logic for these
  can be part of arch/arm/boot/bootp/Makefile.
