Merge tag 'kbuild-v4.15' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/masahiroy/linux-kbuild

Pull Kbuild updates from Masahiro Yamada:
 "One of the most remarkable improvements in this cycle is, Kbuild is
  now able to cache the result of shell commands. Some variables are
  expensive to compute, for example, $(call cc-option,...) invokes the
  compiler. It is not efficient to redo this computation every time,
  even when we are not actually building anything. Kbuild creates a
  hidden file ".cache.mk" that contains invoked shell commands and their
  results. The speed-up should be noticeable.

  Summary:

   - Fix arch build issues (hexagon, sh)

   - Clean up various Makefiles and scripts

   - Fix wrong usage of {CFLAGS,LDFLAGS}_MODULE in arch Makefiles

   - Cache variables that are expensive to compute

   - Improve cc-ldopton and ld-option for Clang

   - Optimize output directory creation"
