Commit 40df759e2b9e ("kbuild: Fix build with binutils &lt;= 2.19")
introduced ar-option and KBUILD_ARFLAGS to deal with old binutils.

According to Documentation/process/changes.rst, the current minimal
supported version of binutils is 2.21 so you can assume the 'D' option
is always supported. Not only GNU ar but also llvm-ar supports it.

With the 'D' option hard-coded, there is no more user of ar-option
or KBUILD_ARFLAGS.

We can re-add this whenever it is needed. At this moment, it is unused.

<title>kbuild: use -- separater intead of $(filter-out ...) for cc-cross-prefix</title>

<content type='text'>
arch/mips/Makefile passes prefixes that start with '-' to cc-cross-prefix
when $(tool-archpref) evaluates to the empty string.

They are filtered-out before the $(shell ...) invocation. Otherwise,
'command -v' would be confused.

  $ command -v -linux-gcc
  bash: command: -l: invalid option
  command: usage: command [-pVv] command [arg ...]

Since commit 913ab9780fc0 ("kbuild: use more portable 'command -v' for
cc-cross-prefix"), cc-cross-prefix throws away the stderr output, so
the console is not polluted in any way.

This is not a big deal in practice, but I see a slightly better taste
in adding '--' to teach it that '-linux-gcc' is an argument instead of
a command option.

This will cause extra forking of subshell, but it will not be noticeable
performance regression.

<title>kbuild: save $(strip ...) for calling if_changed and friends</title>

The string returned by $(filter-out ...) does not contain any leading
or trailing spaces.

With the previous commit, 'any-prereq' no longer contains any
excessive spaces.

Nor does 'cmd-check' since it expands to a $(filter-out ...) call.

So, only the space that matters is the one between 'any-prereq'
and 'cmd-check'.

By removing it from the code, we can save $(strip ...) evaluation.
This refactoring is possible because $(any-prereq)$(cmd-check) is only
passed to the first argument of $(if ...), so we are only interested
in whether or not it is empty.

The string returned by $(filter-out ...) does not contain any leading
or trailing spaces.

So, only the space that matters is the one between

  $(filter-out $(PHONY),$?)

and

  $(filter-out $(PHONY) $(wildcard $^),$^)

By removing it from the code, we can save $(strip ...) evaluation.
This refactoring is possible because $(any-prereq) is only passed to
the first argument of $(if ...), so we are only interested in whether
or not it is empty.

This is also the prerequisite for the next commit.

I prefer 'cmd-check' for consistency.

We have 'echo-cmd', 'cmd', 'cmd_and_fixdep', etc. in this file.

Now that hdr-inst is used only in the top Makefile, move it there
from scripts/Kbuild.include.

<title>docs: kbuild: convert docs to ReST and rename to *.rst</title>

The kbuild documentation clearly shows that the documents
there are written at different times: some use markdown,
some use their own peculiar logic to split sections.

Convert everything to ReST without affecting too much
the author's style and avoiding adding uneeded markups.

The conversion is actually:
  - add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs;
  - fix tables markups;
  - add some lists markups;
  - mark literal blocks;
  - adjust title markups.

At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.
