Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 1/2] Makefile.extrawarn: Add symbol for W=1 warnings for today

There is a movement to try to make more and more of /drivers W=1
clean. But it will only stay clean if new warnings are quickly
detected and fixed, ideally by the developer adding the new code.

To allow subdirectories to sign up to being W=1 clean for a given
definition of W=1, export the current set of additional compile flags
using the symbol KBUILD_CFLAGS_W1_20200930. Subdirectory Makefiles can
then use:

subdir-ccflags-y := $(KBUILD_CFLAGS_W1_20200930)

To indicate they want to W=1 warnings as defined on 20200930.

Additional warnings can be added to the W=1 definition. This will not
affect KBUILD_CFLAGS_W1_20200930 and hence no additional warnings will
start appearing unless W=1 is actually added to the command
line. Developers can then take their time to fix any new W=1 warnings,
and then update to the latest KBUILD_CFLAGS_W1_<DATESTAMP> symbol.
