randstruct: Move seed generation into scripts/basic/

To enable Clang randstruct support, move the structure layout
randomization seed generation out of scripts/gcc-plugins/ into
scripts/basic/ so it happens early enough that it can be used by either
compiler implementation. The gcc-plugin still builds its own header file,
but now does so from the common "randstruct.seed" file.

kbuild: introduce hostprogs-always-y and userprogs-always-y

To build host programs, you need to add the program names to 'hostprogs'
to use the necessary build rule, but it is not enough to build them
because there is no dependency.

There are two types of host programs: built as the prerequisite of
another (e.g. gen_crc32table in lib/Makefile), or always built when
Kbuild visits the Makefile (e.g. genksyms in scripts/genksyms/Makefile).

The latter is typical in Makefiles under scripts/, which contains host
programs globally used during the kernel build. To build them, you need
to add them to both 'hostprogs' and 'always-y'.

This commit adds hostprogs-always-y as a shorthand.

The same applies to user programs. net/bpfilter/Makefile builds
bpfilter_umh on demand, hence always-y is unneeded. In contrast,
programs under samples/ are added to both 'userprogs' and 'always-y'
so they are always built when Kbuild visits the Makefiles.

userprogs-always-y works as a shorthand.

kbuild: rename hostprogs-y/always to hostprogs/always-y

In old days, the "host-progs" syntax was used for specifying host
programs. It was renamed to the current "hostprogs-y" in 2004.

It is typically useful in scripts/Makefile because it allows Kbuild to
selectively compile host programs based on the kernel configuration.

This commit renames like follows:

always -> always-y
hostprogs-y -> hostprogs

So, scripts/Makefile will look like this:

always-$(CONFIG_BUILD_BIN2C) += ...
always-$(CONFIG_KALLSYMS) += ...
...
hostprogs := $(always-y) $(always-m)

I think this makes more sense because a host program is always a host
program, irrespective of the kernel configuration. We want to specify
which ones to compile by CONFIG options, so always-y will be handier.

The "always", "hostprogs-y", "hostprogs-m" will be kept for backward
compatibility for a while.

kbuild: move bin2c back to scripts/ from scripts/basic/

Commit 8370edea81e3 ("bin2c: move bin2c in scripts/basic") moved bin2c
to the scripts/basic/ directory, incorrectly stating "Kexec wants to
use bin2c and it wants to use it really early in the build process.
See arch/x86/purgatory/ code in later patches."

Commit bdab125c9301 ("Revert "kexec/purgatory: Add clean-up for
purgatory directory"") and commit d6605b6bbee8 ("x86/build: Remove
unnecessary preparation for purgatory") removed the redundant
purgatory build magic entirely.

That means that the move of bin2c was unnecessary in the first place.

fixdep is the only host program that deserves to sit in the
scripts/basic/ directory.

bin2c: move bin2c in scripts/basic

This patch series does not do kernel signature verification yet. I plan
to post another patch series for that. Now distributions are already
signing PE/COFF bzImage with PKCS7 signature I plan to parse and verify
those signatures.

Primary goal of this patchset is to prepare groundwork so that kernel
image can be signed and signatures be verified during kexec load. This
should help with two things.

- It should allow kexec/kdump on secureboot enabled machines.

- In general it can help even without secureboot. By being able to verify
kernel image signature in kexec, it should help with avoiding module
signing restrictions. Matthew Garret showed how to boot into a custom
kernel, modify first kernel's memory and then jump back to old kernel and
bypass any policy one wants to.

This patch (of 15):

Kexec wants to use bin2c and it wants to use it really early in the build
process. See arch/x86/purgatory/ code in later patches.

So move bin2c in scripts/basic so that it can be built very early and
be usable by arch/x86/purgatory/

driver core: basic infrastructure for per-module dynamic debug messages

Base infrastructure to enable per-module debug messages.

I've introduced CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG, which when enabled centralizes
control of debugging statements on a per-module basis in one /proc file,
currently, <debugfs>/dynamic_printk/modules. When, CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG,
is not set, debugging statements can still be enabled as before, often by
defining 'DEBUG' for the proper compilation unit. Thus, this patch set has no
affect when CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG is not set.

The infrastructure currently ties into all pr_debug() and dev_dbg() calls. That
is, if CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG is set, all pr_debug() and dev_dbg() calls
can be dynamically enabled/disabled on a per-module basis.

Future plans include extending this functionality to subsystems, that define
their own debug levels and flags.

Usage:

Dynamic debugging is controlled by the debugfs file,
<debugfs>/dynamic_printk/modules. This file contains a list of the modules that
can be enabled. The format of the file is as follows:

<module_name> <enabled=0/1>
.
.
.

<module_name> : Name of the module in which the debug call resides
<enabled=0/1> : whether the messages are enabled or not

For example:

snd_hda_intel enabled=0
fixup enabled=1
driver enabled=0

Enable a module:

$echo "set enabled=1 <module_name>" > dynamic_printk/modules

Disable a module:

$echo "set enabled=0 <module_name>" > dynamic_printk/modules

Enable all modules:

$echo "set enabled=1 all" > dynamic_printk/modules

Disable all modules:

$echo "set enabled=0 all" > dynamic_printk/modules

Finally, passing "dynamic_printk" at the command line enables
debugging for all modules. This mode can be turned off via the above
disable command.

kconfig: integrate split config into silentoldconfig

Now that kconfig can load multiple configurations, it becomes simple to
integrate the split config step, by simply comparing the new .config file with
the old auto.conf (and then saving the new auto.conf). A nice side effect is
that this saves a bit of disk space and cache, as no data needs to be read
from or saved into the splitted config files anymore (e.g. include/config is
now 648KB instead of 5.2MB).
