Kbuild allows for us to probe for the existence of specific constructs
in the assembler, use them to find out if we can use fxsave64 and
permit the compiler to generate better code.

The arch/x86/Makefile uses scripts/gcc-x86_$(BITS)-has-stack-protector.sh
to check if cc1 supports -fstack-protector.  When -fPIE is passed to cc1,
these scripts fail causing stack protection to be disabled even when it
is available.

This fix is similar to commit c47efe55

Replace the use of CROSS_COMPILE to select a customized
installkernel script with the possibility to set INSTALLKERNEL
to select a custom installkernel script when running make:

    make INSTALLKERNEL=arm-installkernel install

With this patch we are now more consistent across
different architectures - they did not all support use
of CROSS_COMPILE.

The use of CROSS_COMPILE was a hack as this really belongs
to gcc/binutils and the installkernel script does not change
just because we change toolchain.

The use of CROSS_COMPILE caused troubles with an upcoming patch
that saves CROSS_COMPILE when a kernel is built - it would no
longer be installable.
[Thanks to Peter Z. for this hint]

This patch undos what Ian did in commit:

  0f8e2d62


  ("use ${CROSS_COMPILE}installkernel in arch/*/boot/install.sh")

The patch has been lightly tested on x86 only - but all changes
looks obvious.

General description: kmemcheck is a patch to the linux kernel that
detects use of uninitialized memory. It does this by trapping every
read and write to memory that was allocated dynamically (e.g. using
kmalloc()). If a memory address is read that has not previously been
written to, a message is printed to the kernel log.

Thanks to Andi Kleen for the set_memory_4k() solution.

Andrew Morton suggested documenting the shadow member of struct page.

It is common to use "make install" in restricted environments which
differ from the one which was actually used to build the kernel.  In
such environments it is highly undesirable to trigger a rebuild of any
part of the system.  Worse, the rebuild may be spurious, triggered by
differences in the environment.

If the user selects the stack-protector config option, but does not have
a gcc that has the right bits enabled (for example because it isn't build
with a glibc that supports TLS, as is common for cross-compilers, but also
because it may be too old), then the runtime test fails right now.

This patch adds a warning message for this scenario. This warning accomplishes
two goals
1) the user is informed that the security option he selective isn't available
2) the user is suggested to turn of the CONFIG option that won't work for him,
   and would make the runtime test fail anyway.

Unify the 32 and 64 bit specific Makefiles.
The unification was simplest to do in one step although the
readability of the patch suffers a bit from this.

Noteworthy remarks on the unification:
- The 64 bit cpu stuff should be moved to Makefile_32.cpu
  but I did not feel confident doing it due to subtle differences
- The use of cflags-y were abandoned since we have seen one bug where
  we did wrong due to missing assignment to KBUILD_CFLAGS.
  The cc-option marcro uses KBUILD_CFLAGS.
- The "No need to remake" line are deleted. It caused "make -B" to fail
- For 64 bit the sub architecture stuff is not used.
- The way head64.o is specified could be nicer - but it awaits the
  introduction of head32.o (which seems like a win to introduce for readability)
- Patch is checkpatch clean

Patch is tested by doing a defconfig build for i386 and x86_64 and in both
cases monitoring that only relevant files were recompiled when applying
the patch.
