KBUILD_ENABLE_EXTRA_GCC_CHECKS started as a switch to add extra warning
options for GCC, but now it is a historical misnomer since we use it
also for Clang, DTC, and even kernel-doc.
Rename it to more sensible, and shorter KBUILD_EXTRA_WARN.
For the backward compatibility, KBUILD_ENABLE_EXTRA_GCC_CHECKS is still
supported (but not advertised in the documentation).
I also fixed up 'make help', and updated the documentation.

Thanks for the patch.
I like the backward compatibility and am OK with pointing to 'make
--help' for the documentation part (KISS - Keep It Simple and

If you will do a next version...
- @echo ' make W=n [targets] Enable extra gcc checks, n=1,2,3 where'
+ @echo ' make W=n [targets] Enable extra checks, n=1,2,3 where'
...clarify on extra checks for compiler...

+KBUILD_EXTRA_WARN
+-----------------
+Specify the extra build checks. The same value can be assigned by passing
+W=... from the command line.

- @echo ' make W=n [targets] Enable extra gcc checks, n=1,2,3 where'
+ @echo ' make W=n [targets] Enable extra build checks, n=1,2,3 where'
