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 7b16994437c7 ("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.
