setlocalversion: fix version for untaged nontip mercurial revs

The manpage for cut says it will return all lines without the delimiter

When I backed up my mecurial tree to generate modules, I found that the
scm part of localversion was turning up blank.

ARM: 6312/1: ftrace: allow building without frame pointers

With current gcc, compiling with both -pg and -fomit-frame-pointer is
not allowed.  However, -pg can be used to build without actually
specifying -fno-omit-frame-pointer, upon which the default behaviour
for the target will be used.

On ARM, it is not possible to build a Thumb-2 kernel with
-fno-omit-frame-pointer (FRAME_POINTERS depends on !THUMB2_KERNEL). In
order to support ftrace for Thumb-2, we need to be able to allow a
combination of FUNCTION_TRACER and !FRAME_POINTER.  We do this by
omitting -fomit-frame-pointer if ftrace is enabled.

kbuild: fix interaction of CONFIG_IKCONFIG and KCONFIG_CONFIG

If you try to build a kernel with KCONFIG_CONFIG set (to a value
not equal to .config) and that config sets CONFIG_IKCONFIG then the
build will fail with:

make[1]: *** No rule to make target `.config', needed by \
`kernel/config_data.gz'.  Stop.

because the kernel/Makefile contains a direct reference to .config.

This issue has been present since the introduction of KCONFIG_CONFIG
in 14cdd3c402bf7c66f0bcd76e290f0770a54a4b21.

KBuild: silence "'scripts/unifdef' is up to date."

While changing our build system over to use the headers_install target
as part of our klibc build, the following message started showing up in
our logs:

make[2]: `scripts/unifdef' is up to date.

It turns out that the build blindly invokes a recursive make on this
target, which causes make to emit this message when the target is
already up to date.  This isn't seen for most targets as the rest of the
build relies primarily on the default target and on PHONY targets when
invoking make recursively.

Silence the above message when building unifdef as part of
headers_install by hiding it behind a new PHONY target called
"build_unifdef" that has an empty recipe.

kbuild: Fix GNU make v3.80 compatibility

commit 43f67c98161c65f1b2e3af3a9ce6741850072c06 upstream.

According to Documentation/Changes, the kernel should be buildable with
GNU make 3.80+.  Commit 88d7be031f9f975bb3f50a0b5ef3796a671e7edf (kbuild:
Use a single clean rule for kernel and external modules) introduced the
"$(or" construct, which requires make 3.81.  This causes "make clean" to
malfunction when it is used with external modules.

Replace "$(or" with an equivalent "$(if" expression, to restore backward
compatibility.
