[RFC PATCH 27/28] lkl: add support for Windows hosts

From: Octavian Purdila
Date: Tue Nov 03 2015 - 15:23:36 EST


This patch allows LKL to be compiled for windows hosts with the mingw
toolchain. Note that patches [1] that fix weak symbols linking are
required to successfully compile LKL with mingw.

The patch disables the modpost pass over vmlinux since modpost only
works with ELF objects.

It also adds and workaround to an #include_next <stdard.h> error which
is apparently caused by using -nosdtinc.
