We currently do the Linux build as follows:
make <imagename>
if modules enabled; make modules; fi
However, Clement Léger recently reported that due to us not using the
"all" target, the GDB scripts that the kernel can build when
CONFIG_GDB_SCRIPTS is enabled are not built, since upstream kernel
commit 67274c083438340ad16c1437caebc84e1253b224 (merged in v5.1) moved
that logic to a separate scripts_gdb target, which is a dependency of
the "all" target.
While we could add some more logic to explicit generate the
"scripts_gdb" target, this logic would fail on Linux < 5.1 for which
this make target doesn't exist.
So instead, let's simplify the build logic, and use:
make all <imagename>
The "all" target automatically depends on "modules" if CONFIG_MODULES
is set, so we no longer need to explicit generate the "modules" target
separately.
As a result of this change, we may generate additional kernel images
compared to what was done previously, but such images would anyway not
be installed, and the additional build time is minimal.
We did some research as to why the kernel build was done like this in
Buildroot, and it's been like that since linux/linux.mk was added back
in 2010 by commit 487e21cff6 ("New,
simpler, infrastructure for building the Linux kernel").

A patch was added to the Linux kernel in 5.1.0-rc3 which adds a
requirement that the host build environment include pkg-config. Add the
correct host-pkgconf dependency and environment variables to ensure
Linux picks up the correct libraries.
Move the existing LINUX_MAKE_ENV assignment earlier, to simplify the
append-assignment in the libelf conditional block.

Xenomai has two mutually exclusive cores:
- Cobalt: dual-kernel approach: patched kernel + userland
- Mercury: only userland
In the Cobalt core, not all architectures are supported. This is the source
of the existing ARCH_SUPPORTS variable.
In the Mercury core, there is no imposed architecture restriction.
Rename the XENOMAI_ARCH_SUPPORTS flag to XENOMAI_COBALT_ARCH_SUPPORTS and
move its check from the Xenomai package to the Cobalt core.
Nevertheless, even for Mercury, there are some restrictions:
- pthread_atfork is used, which requires an MMU
- sync functions like __sync_sub_and_fetch and __sync_add_and_fetch are
expected.
As the corresponding 'linux extension' selects Xenomai, we add the
MMU and sync dependencies there too. They may or may not already be covered
by XENOMAI_COBALT_ARCH_SUPPORTS flag.

linux is a bit different than other kconfig-package, because it has
"toolchain" in KCONFIG_DEPENDENCIES. Thanks to this, host-ccache *is*
ready by the time kconfig invocations are made, so we could use
$(HOSTCC) as the host compiler for kconfig related operations.
However, for consistency with other kconfig-package packages, we chose
to use $(HOSTCC_NOCCACHE) as well.
We cannot rely on the default value of HOSTCC passed by the
kconfig-package infrastructure, because $(LINUX_MAKE_FLAGS) also
contains a HOSTCC definition that would override the one passed by the
kconfig-package infrastructure.

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.
