Subject: [PATCH v2 3/4] x86/build: Use cc-option-raw for boot code compiler options

cc-option uses KBUILD_CFLAGS and KBUILD_CPPFLAGS when checking if a
compiler option is available. These flags aren't used to build the boot
code, in consequence cc-option can yield wrong results. For example
-mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 is never set with a 64 bit compiler,
since the setting is only valid for 16 and 32 bit binaries. This
is also the case for 32 bit kernel builds, because the option -m32 is
added to KBUILD_CFLAGS after the assignment of REALMODE_CFLAGS.

Use cc-option-raw instead of cc-option for the boot mode options.
The macro receives the compiler options as parameter instead of using
KBUILD_C*FLAGS. For the boot code we pass REALMODE_CFLAGS.

Also use separate statements for the cc-option-raw checks instead
of performing them in the initial assignment of REALMODE_CFLAGS since
the variable is an input of the macro.
