4.20.x is not a long term support kernel, but 4.19.x is (supported until end
2020):
https://www.kernel.org/category/releases.html
With the upcoming Buildroot 2019.02 release being a LTS release, default to
4.19.x instead.
Notice: The userspace API breakage in net_stamp.h causing build failures has
now been fixed in 4.19.14 by commit e4a2ffe9029fd (net: Use
__kernel_clockid_t in uapi net_stamp.h)

Processor Counter Monitor (PCM) is an application programming interface
(API) and a set of tools based on the API to monitor performance and
energy metrics of Intel(R) Core(TM), Xeon(R), Atom(TM) and Xeon Phi(TM)
processors.
This package contains a patch on the pmu-query.py script to look for the
pcm-core program at the default path. It's not nice to have a Buildroot
specific patch but let's use one while we look for a solution that is
acceptable upstream.

When using an initramfs, on the first-pass build, we create a dummy cpio
so that the build succeeeds. The real cpio will come later, and we'll do
a second-pass build to use the actual cpio.
However, when we touch that dummy cpio, the images/ directory may not
yet exist, since commit d0f4f95e39 (Makefile: rework main directory
creation logic) removed its creation at the begining of the build, to
only at the moment we need it, i.e. during the *_INSTALL_IMAGES_CMDS
steps.
However, the linux build is not a _INSTALL_IMAGES_CMDS step, so there is
no guarantee that images/ already exist at that time.
Fix that by explicitly creating images/ before touching the dummy cpio.

Checking for the existence of the dtc binary built by the
non-dependent dtc package may cause instable behaviour when giving more
freedom on the order of how the packages are built (parallelization).
In addidion, when moving to per-package host/target method, the check
would always trigger in the isolated host, leading to linux-dtc always
being installed as dtc.
This in turn may lead to undesired overwriting of the real host-dtc binary
when finally assembling the global host dir.
Thus rework the linux-dtc install condition to be defined by configuration
rather than compile time order.

The commit that added the dependency on host-{bison,flex} did
so because the pre-generated kconfig parser source files were
removed from the kernel tree, in linux-4.16.
But then, in linux-4.17, the pre-generated dtc parser source
files were in turn removed as well.
So, document the two reasons why they are needed, so we don't
accidentally remove them when we (soon) introduce the kconfig
dependencies.
(Also fix the first assignment to LINUX_DEPENDENCIES to be a
simple assignement, not an append-assignment.)

gcc-8 started warning about function aliases that have a non-matching
prototype. This seems rather useful in general, but it causes tons of
warnings in the Linux kernel, where we rely on abusing those aliases
for system call entry points, in order to sanitze the arguments passed
from user space in registers.
See https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=82435
Disable the attribute-alias warning introduced by gcc-8 by adding
-Wno-attribute-alias to KCFLAGS.
