[PATCH v2 1/4] kbuild: use $(CC_VERSION_TEXT) to evaluate CC_IS_GCC and CC_IS_CLANG

From: Masahiro Yamada
Date: Thu Apr 23 2020 - 10:24:55 EST


The result of '$(CC) --version | head -n 1' is already computed by the
top Makefile, and stored in the environment variable, CC_VERSION_TEXT.

'echo' is probably less expensive than the two commands $(CC) and
'head' although this optimization is not noticeable level.
