[PATCH v2] kbuild: fix linker feature test macros when cross compiling with Clang

[Nick Desaulniers]

I was not seeing my linker flags getting added when using ld-option when
cross compiling with Clang. Upon investigation, this seems to be due to
a difference in how GCC vs Clang handle cross compilation.

GCC is configured at build time to support one backend, that is implicit
when compiling.  Clang is explicit via the use of `-target <triple>` and
ships with all supported backends by default.

GNU Make feature test macros that compile then link will always fail
when cross compiling with Clang unless Clang's triple is passed along to
the compiler. For example:

$ clang -x c /dev/null -c -o temp.o
$ aarch64-linux-android/bin/ld -E temp.o
aarch64-linux-android/bin/ld:
unknown architecture of input file `temp.o' is incompatible with
aarch64 output
aarch64-linux-android/bin/ld:
warning: cannot find entry symbol _start; defaulting to
0000000000400078
$ echo $?
1

$ clang -target aarch64-linux-android- -x c /dev/null -c -o temp.o
$ aarch64-linux-android/bin/ld -E temp.o
aarch64-linux-android/bin/ld:
warning: cannot find entry symbol _start; defaulting to 00000000004002e4
$ echo $?
0

This causes conditional checks that invoke $(CC) without the target
triple, then $(LD) on the result, to always fail.

  kbuild branch, per Masahiro.
* Use $(KBUILD_CPPFLAGS) $(CC_OPTION_CFLAGS) rather than $(CLANG_TRIPLE), per
  Masahiro.
