2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jean Delvare <jdelvare@xxxxxxx>

This is upstream commit b1e0d8b70fa31821ebca3965f2ef8619d7c5e316
backported to the 2.6.32.x stable branch.

The correct syntax for gcc -x is "gcc -x assembler", not
"gcc -xassembler". Even though the latter happens to work, the former
is what is documented in the manual page and thus what gcc wrappers
such as icecream do expect.

This isn't a cosmetic change. The missing space prevents icecream from
recognizing compilation tasks it can't handle, leading to silent kernel
miscompilations.

Besides me, credits go to Michael Matz and Dirk Mueller for
investigating the miscompilation issue and tracking it down to this
incorrect -x parameter syntax.
