Subject: [RFC PATCH 5/7] kconfig: invoke silentoldconfig when compiler is updated
Date:   Fri,  9 Feb 2018 01:19:10 +0900

Moving compiler option tests to Kconfig means you need to re-run
Kconfig when you update your compiler.  All CC_HAS_... symbols
and other symbols that depend on them must be re-calculated.

It will be nice to detect the compiler update and automatically
invoke silentoldconfig.

This can be done by adding one environment.  With this, silentoldconfig
will add something like follows into include/config/auto.conf.cmd:

ifneq "$(CC_VERSION_TEXT)" "gcc (Ubuntu 5.4.0-6ubuntu1~16.04.6) 5.4.0 20160609"
include/config/auto.conf: FORCE
endif

CC_VERSION_TEXT contains the first line of "$(CC) --version".  If this text
is changed, silentoldconfig will be invoked.
