ARC: build: Better way to detect ISA compatible toolchain
ARC architecture has 2 instruction sets: ARCompact/ARCv2. While same gcc supports compiling for either (using appropriate toggles), we can't use the same toolchain to build kernel because libgcc needs to be unique and the toolchian (uClibc based) is not multilibed. uClibc toolchain is convenient since it allows all userspace and kernel to be built with a single install for an ISA. This however means 2 gnu installs (with same triplet prefix) are needed for building for 2 ISA and need to be in PATH. As developers we keep switching the builds, but would occassionally fail to update the PATH leading to usage of wrong tools. And this would only show up at the end of kernel build when linking incompatible libgcc. So the initial solution was to have gcc define a special preprocessor macro DEFAULT_CPU_xxx which is unique for default toolchain configuration. Claudiu proposed using grep for an existing preprocessor macro which is again uniquely defined per ISA.
