Subject: bug scrub

Hi!

I went through the issue tracker and tried to get issues updated, add
some new labels, etc.

Stuff of note:

- "Global flag" label[1], for compiler options to turn on globally in the
  top-level Makefile.
	https://github.com/KSPP/linux/labels/%5BBuild%5D%20Global%20flag

- Scrubbed per-arch issues, but mostly seemed to update the status of
  powerpc.
	https://github.com/KSPP/linux/labels/%5BARCH%5D%20powerpc64

- Collected all sub-bugs of the top-level "get rid of fake flex arrays"
  issue, so there's a single place to look at status.
	https://github.com/KSPP/linux/issues/21

As always, the "good first issue" list of bugs is a nice place for folks
to look through if they want to help out.

And if anyone wants to continue the strlcpy removal work, I think it
just needs some rebasing and shepherding of patches through to subsystem
maintainers.
