Subject: [PATCH v2 4/4] kconfig: link CONFIG_CROSS_COMPILE with environment
 variable

Cross-compiler tool prefix can be set in command line, in the environment
variable CROSS_COMPILE or in config file, in option CONFIG_COROSS_COMPILE.
Also some arch/*/Makefile provides default value.

This patch links config option CONFIG_CROSS_COMPILE and variable CROSS_COMPILE
in both directions: environment/command line has higher priority and updates
value saved in the config file, config option acts as default value for it.

This is especially useful together with option O=dir which allows to create
separate directory for each target architecture and kernel flavor:

# make O=build/arm ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-eabi- defconfig
# make -C build/arm
