It's unusable from userland - it uses elf_gregset_t, which is not
provided by exported headers.  glibc has it in sys/procfs.h, but
the same file defines struct elf_prstatus, so linux/elfcore.h can't
be included once sys/procfs.h has been pulled.  Same goes for uclibc
and dietlibc simply doesn't have elf_gregset_t defined anywhere.

IOW, no userland source is including that thing.

<title>bpfilter: match bit size of bpfilter_umh to that of the kernel</title>

bpfilter_umh is built for the default machine bit of the compiler,
which may not match to the bit size of the kernel.

This happens in the scenario below:

You can use biarch GCC that defaults to 64-bit for building the 32-bit
kernel. In this case, Kbuild passes -m32 to teach the compiler to
produce 32-bit kernel space objects. However, it is missing when
building bpfilter_umh. It is built as a 64-bit ELF, and then embedded
into the 32-bit kernel.

The 32-bit kernel and 64-bit umh is a bad combination.

In theory, we can have 32-bit umh running on 64-bit kernel, but we do
not have a good reason to support such a usecase.

The best is to match the bit size between them.

Pass -m32 or -m64 to the umh build command if it is found in
$(KBUILD_CFLAGS). Evaluate CC_CAN_LINK against the kernel bit-size.

<title>kbuild: use -MMD instead of -MD to exclude system headers from dependency</title>

This omits system headers from the generated header dependency.

System headers are not updated unless you upgrade the compiler. Nor do
they contain CONFIG options, so fixdep does not need to parse them.

Having said that, the effect of this optimization will be quite small
because the kernel code generally does not include system headers
except &lt;stdarg.h&gt;. Host programs include a lot of system headers,
but there are not so many in the kernel tree.

At first, keeping system headers in .*.cmd files might be useful to
detect the compiler update, but there is no guarantee that &lt;stdarg.h&gt;
is included from every file. So, I implemented a more reliable way in
the previous commit.

Adding an include guard to every header file is good practice in case
it is included multiple times.

Exported headers are compile-tested for the comprehensive sanity checks.
Let's include the same header twice. If an include guard is missing,
the header will fail to build due to redefinition of something.

  usr/include/asm-generic/msgbuf.h:42:2: error: unknown type name `__kernel_pid_t'
    __kernel_pid_t msg_lrpid; /* last receive pid */
    ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It is just a matter of missing include directive.

Include &lt;asm/ipcbuf.h&gt; to make it self-contained, and add it to
the compile-test coverage.
