The gold linker has known issues of failing the build both in random and in
predictible ways:
- The x86/X32 VDSO build fails with:
arch/x86/entry/vdso/vclock_gettime-x32.o:vclock_gettime.c:function do_hres:
error: relocation overflow: reference to 'hvclock_page'
That's a known issue for years and the usual workaround is to disable
CONFIG_X86_32
- A recent build failure is caused by turning a relocation into an
absolute one for unknown reasons. See link below.
- There are a couple of gold workarounds applied already, but reports
about broken builds with ld.gold keep coming in on a regular base and in
most cases the root cause is unclear.
In context of the most recent fail H.J. stated:
"Since building a workable kernel for different kernel configurations
isn't a requirement for gold, I don't recommend gold for kernel."
So instead of dealing with attempts to duct tape gold support without
understanding the root cause and without support from the gold folks, fail
the build when gold is detected.

If the particular version of clang a user has doesn't enable
-Werror=unknown-warning-option by default, even though it is the
default[1], then make sure to pass the option to the Kconfig cc-option
command so that testing options from Kconfig files works properly.
Otherwise, depending on the default values setup in the clang toolchain
we will silently assume options such as -Wmaybe-uninitialized are
supported by clang, when they really aren't.
A compilation issue only started happening for me once commit
589834b3a009 ("kbuild: Add -Werror=unknown-warning-option to
CLANG_FLAGS") was applied on top of commit b303c6df80c9 ("kbuild:
compute false-positive -Wmaybe-uninitialized cases in Kconfig"). This
leads kbuild to try and test for the existence of the
-Wmaybe-uninitialized flag with the cc-option command in
scripts/Kconfig.include, and it doesn't see an error returned from the
option test so it sets the config value to Y. Then the Makefile tries to
pass the unknown option on the command line and
-Werror=unknown-warning-option catches the invalid option and breaks the
build. Before commit 589834b3a009 ("kbuild: Add
-Werror=unknown-warning-option to CLANG_FLAGS") the build works fine,
but any cc-option test of a warning option in Kconfig files silently
evaluates to true, even if the warning option flag isn't supported on
clang.
Note: This doesn't change cc-option usages in Makefiles because those
use a different rule that includes KBUILD_CFLAGS by default (see the
__cc-option command in scripts/Kbuild.incluide). The KBUILD_CFLAGS
variable already has the -Werror=unknown-warning-option flag set. Thanks
to Doug for pointing out the different rule.

If the compiler specified by $(CC) is not present, the Kconfig stage
sprinkles 'not found' messages, then succeeds.

"make *config" will fail more nicely.

Now that the Kconfig is the only user of this script, we can drop
unneeded code.
Remove the -p option, and stop prepending the output with zero,
so that Kconfig can directly use the output from this script.

Run scripts/gcc-plugin.sh from Kconfig so that users can enable
GCC_PLUGINS only when the compiler supports building plugins.
Kconfig defines a new symbol, PLUGIN_HOSTCC. This will contain
the compiler (g++ or gcc) used for building plugins, or empty
if the plugin can not be supported at all.
This allows us to remove all ugly testing in Makefile.gcc-plugins.

Kconfig got text processing tools like we see in Make. Add Kconfig
helper macros to scripts/Kconfig.include like we collect Makefile
macros in scripts/Kbuild.include.
