Masahiro Yamada 4d0831e8a0 kconfig: unify cc-option and as-option 
cc-option and as-option are almost the same; both pass the flag to
$(CC). The main difference is the cc-option stops before the assemble
stage (-S option) whereas as-option stops after (-c option).

I chose -S because it is slightly faster, but $(cc-option,-gz=zlib)
returns a wrong result (https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/6/9/1529).
It has been fixed by commit 7b16994437 ("Makefile: Improve compressed
debug info support detection"), but the assembler should always be
invoked for more reliable compiler option tests.

However, you cannot simply replace -S with -c because the following
code in lib/Kconfig.debug would break:

    depends on $(cc-option,-gsplit-dwarf)

The combination of -c and -gsplit-dwarf does not accept /dev/null as
output.

  $ cat /dev/null | gcc -gsplit-dwarf -S -x c - -o /dev/null
  $ echo $?
  0

  $ cat /dev/null | gcc -gsplit-dwarf -c -x c - -o /dev/null
  objcopy: Warning: '/dev/null' is not an ordinary file
  $ echo $?
  1

  $ cat /dev/null | gcc -gsplit-dwarf -c -x c - -o tmp.o
  $ echo $?
  0

There is another flag that creates an separate file based on the
object file path:

  $ cat /dev/null | gcc -ftest-coverage -c -x c - -o /dev/null
  <stdin>:1: error: cannot open /dev/null.gcno

So, we cannot use /dev/null to sink the output.

Align the cc-option implementation with scripts/Kbuild.include.

With -c option used in cc-option, as-option is unneeded.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
