kbuild: introduce cc-cross-prefix

cc-cross-prefix is useful for the architecture that like to provide a default CROSS_COMPILE value, but may have several to select between. Sample usage: ifneq ($(SUBARCH),$(ARCH)) ifeq ($(CROSS_COMPILE),) CROSS_COMPILE := $(call cc-cross-prefix, m68k-linux-gnu- m68k-linux-) endif endif Actual usage by the different archs will taken care of later.

521 cc-cross-prefix
522 cc-cross-prefix is used to check if there exist a $(CC) in path with
523 one of the listed prefixes. The first prefix where there exist a
524 prefix$(CC) in the PATH is returned - and if no prefix$(CC) is found
525 then nothing is returned.
526 Additional prefixes are separated by a single space in the
527 call of cc-cross-prefix.
528 This functionality is usefull for architecture Makefile that try
529 to set CROSS_COMPILE to well know values but may have several
530 values to select between.
531 It is recommended only to try to set CROSS_COMPILE is it is a cross
532 build (host arch is different from target arch). And is CROSS_COMPILE
533 is already set then leave it with the old value.
534
535 Example:
536 #arch/m68k/Makefile
537 ifneq ($(SUBARCH),$(ARCH))
538 ifeq ($(CROSS_COMPILE),)
539 CROSS_COMPILE := $(call cc-cross-prefix, m68k-linux-gnu-)
