[PATCH v5 2/2] x86/purgatory: use CFLAGS_REMOVE rather than reset KBUILD_CFLAGS

From: Nick Desaulniers
Date: Wed Aug 07 2019 - 18:16:07 EST


KBUILD_CFLAGS is very carefully built up in the top level Makefile,
particularly when cross compiling or using different build tools.
Resetting KBUILD_CFLAGS via := assignment is an antipattern.

The comment above the reset mentions that -pg is problematic. Other
Makefiles use `CFLAGS_REMOVE_file.o = $(CC_FLAGS_FTRACE)` when
CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER is set. Prefer that pattern to wiping out all of
the important KBUILD_CFLAGS then manually having to re-add them. Seems
also that __stack_chk_fail references are generated when using
CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR or CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG.

Changes v4 -> v5:
* Add RETPOLINE_CFLAGS when CONFIG_RETPOLINE=y as per tglx.
* Add tglx's Suggested-by tag.
Changes v3 -> v4:
* Use tabs to align flags (stylistic change only).
* Drop stable tag, patch 01/02 doesn't apply earlier than 5.1.
* Add tglx's suggested by tag for the tabs.
* Carry Vaibhav's tested by tag from v3 since v4 is simply stylistic.
Changes v2 -> v3:
* Prefer $(CC_FLAGS_FTRACE) which is exported to -pg.
* Also check CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR and CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG.
* Cc stable.
Changes v1 -> v2:
Rather than manually add -mno-sse, -mno-mmx, -mno-sse2, prefer to filter
-pg flags.
