Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: do not pick up CFLAGS from the environment
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Too many people have CFLAGS set to support building userspace.
And now Kbuild picks up CFLAGS this caused troubles.
Although people should realise that setting CFLAGS has
a 'global' effect the impact on the kernel build is a suprise.
So change kbuild to pick up value from KCFLAGS that is
much less used.
When kbuild pick up a value it will warn like this:
Makefile:544: "WARNING: Appending $KCFLAGS (-O3) from environment to kernel $CFLAGS"
