Matthias Kaehlcke 9e8730b178 x86/build: Use cc-option to validate stack alignment parameter
With the following commit:

  8f91869766 ("x86/build: Fix stack alignment for CLang")

cc-option is only used to determine the name of the stack alignment option
supported by the compiler, but not to verify that the actual parameter
<option>=N is valid in combination with the other CFLAGS.

This causes problems (as reported by the kbuild robot) with older GCC versions
which only support stack alignment on a boundary of 16 bytes or higher.

Also use (__)cc_option to add the stack alignment option to CFLAGS to
make sure only valid options are added.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
