[RFC PATCH] kbuild: add -fno-PIE

From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior
Date: Fri Oct 21 2016 - 07:16:22 EST


Debian started to build the gcc with --enable-default-pie by default so the
kernel build ends before it starts properly with:
|kernel/bounds.c:1:0: error: code model kernel does not support PIC mode

Is this okay or do we want some kind of check to see if -fno-PIE is supported?
It is mentioned in the 4.4.7 gcc manpage is it is not *that* new :)
