Merge tag 'kbuild-v4.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/masahiroy/linux-kbuild
Pull Kbuild updates from Masahiro Yamada:
- add a shell script to get Clang version
- improve portability of build scripts
- drop always-enabled CONFIG_THIN_ARCHIVE and remove unused code
- rename built-in.o which is now thin archive to built-in.a
- process clean/build targets one by one to get along with -j option
- simplify ld-option
- improve building with CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS
- define KBUILD_MODNAME even for objects shared among multiple modules
- avoid linking multiple instances of same objects from composite
objects
- move <linux/compiler_types.h> to c_flags to include it only for C
files
- clean-up various Makefiles
