[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/2] linux: introduce LINUX_KCFLAGS to add additional options to the C compiler

[Romain Naour]

Since 9a50447b5d4b2ab0162e3235395ab9a4c8a647d5 KCFLAGS is set
to disable a compiler warning but doesn't allow to provide
more flags.

This refactoring introduce LINUX_KCFLAGS to provide more
options to the C compiler.
