Subject: kbuild - introduce support for subdir-ccflags-y
Following patch introduce support for setting options
to gcc that has effect for current directory and all
subdirectories.
The typical use cases are an architecture or a subsystem that
decide to cover all files with -Werror.
Today alpha, mips and sparc uses -Werror in almost all their
Makefile - with subdir-ccflag-y it is now simpler to do so
as only the top-level directories needs to be covered.
Likewise if we decide to cover a full subsystem such
as net/ with -Werror this is done by adding a single
line to net/Makefile.
The feature is added because the x86 guys are planning
to (conditionally) cover all of arch/x86/ with -Werrror
and adding this statement in each single Makefile
was *the wrong way* to do so.
