#1205841 — [PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 025/118] kbuild: Allow arch Makefiles to override {cpp,ld,c}flags

3.16.7-ckt16 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz>

commit 61754c18752ffb78145671e94f053fb202fff041 upstream.

Since commit a1c48bb1 (Makefile: Fix unrecognized cross-compiler command
line options), the arch Makefile is included earlier by the main
Makefile, preventing the arc architecture to set its -O3 compiler
option. Since there might be more use cases for an arch Makefile to
fine-tune the options, add support for ARCH_CPPFLAGS, ARCH_AFLAGS and
ARCH_CFLAGS variables that are appended to the respective kbuild
variables. The user still has the final say via the KCPPFLAGS, KAFLAGS
and KCFLAGS variables.
