We had a dummy dependency on include/linux/compile.h, but it really caused
more trouble than benefits. It's not actually needed for the module
postprocessing, it was only put there to make sure we recognize when
gcc changed under us. However, we really can only do so much, and
the rest of kbuild won't notice a changed gcc either, so if the user replaces
gcc during a build, he just can't rely on the build doing the right thing.

The common cases are still covered, anyway. When the command to invoke
gcc changes ("CC=gcc32") we notice, and when the path to

	/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/2.96/include/stdarg.h

changes (which luckily contains the "2.96", we'll notice and handle that,
too.

1) Remove dep from "make help", it is no longer useful
2) replace Generating with GEN when generating version.h

When a rule in the top-level Makefile includes scripts as one
of the prerequisites it inherits FORCE, and thus is always build.
include/linux/autoconf.h recently included scripts hereby forcing
split-include to be run for each compilation.

Fix all rules that lists scripts as a prerequisite but did not list FORCE.
Fixed by listing the executable needed direct.

We don't really have a nice way to say "compile this when CONFIG_FOO
is y, don't otherwise".

Alternatives are:

obj-$(subst m,,$(CONFIG_FOO)) := foo.o

or

obj-$(CONFIG_FOO)	:= foo.o
obj-m :=

or

obj-y			:= do_foo.o
do_foo-$(CONFIG_FOO)	:= foo.o

I chose the last one, though I'm not particularly happy with either.

This patch fixes what might have been a joke, but wasn't.

 Coverted -> Converted

One down, 285 to go.

Patch from Stephen Cameron <steve.cameron@hp.com>

Add new big passthrough ioctl to allow large buffers.  Used by e.g.  online
array controller firmware flash utility.
