[PATCH] ARC: Override toplevel default -O2 with -O3

From: Vineet Gupta
Date: Thu Jun 18 2015 - 04:24:01 EST


ARC kernels have historically been built with -O3, despite top level
Makefile defaulting to -O2. This was facilitated by implicitly ordering
of arch makefile include AFTER top level assigned -O2.

An upstream fix to top level a1c48bb160f ("Makefile: Fix unrecognized
cross-compiler command line options") changed the ordering, making ARC
-O3 defunt.

Fix that by NOT relying on any ordering whatsoever and use the proper
arch override facility now present in kbuild (ARCH_*FLAGS)
