    Pull Kbuild updates from Masahiro Yamada:
    
     - remove unneeded asm headers from hexagon, ia64
    
     - add 'dir-pkg' target, which works like 'tar-pkg' but skips archiving
    
     - add 'helpnewconfig' target, which shows help for new CONFIG options
    
     - support 'make nsdeps' for external modules
    
     - make rebuilds faster by deleting $(wildcard $^) checks
    
     - remove compile tests for kernel-space headers
    
     - refactor modpost to simplify modversion handling
    
     - make single target builds faster
    
     - optimize and clean up scripts/kallsyms.c
    
     - refactor various Makefiles and scripts
