ccflags-remove-$(CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER) += $(CC_FLAGS_FTRACE)
exists here in sub-directories of lib/ to keep the behavior of
commit 2464a609ded0 ("ftrace: do not trace library functions").
Since that commit, not only the objects in lib/ but also the ones in
the sub-directories are excluded from ftrace (although the commit
description did not explicitly mention this).
However, most of library functions in sub-directories are not so hot.
Re-add them to ftrace.
Going forward, only the objects right under lib/ will be excluded.

CFLAGS_REMOVE_<file>.o filters out flags when compiling a particular
object, but there is no convenient way to do that for every object in
a directory.
Add ccflags-remove-y and asflags-remove-y to make it easily.
Use ccflags-remove-y to clean up some Makefiles.
The add/remove order works as follows:
[1] KBUILD_CFLAGS specifies compiler flags used globally
[2] ccflags-y adds compiler flags for all objects in the
current Makefile
[3] ccflags-remove-y removes compiler flags for all objects in the
current Makefile (New feature)
[4] CFLAGS_<file> adds compiler flags per file.
[5] CFLAGS_REMOVE_<file> removes compiler flags per file.
Having [3] before [4] allows us to remove flags from most (but not all)
objects in the current Makefile.
For example, kernel/trace/Makefile removes $(CC_FLAGS_FTRACE)
from all objects in the directory, then adds it back to
trace_selftest_dynamic.o and CFLAGS_trace_kprobe_selftest.o
The same applies to lib/livepatch/Makefile.
Please note ccflags-remove-y has no effect to the sub-directories.
In contrast, the previous notation got rid of compiler flags also from
all the sub-directories.
The following are not affected because they have no sub-directories:
arch/arm/boot/compressed/
arch/powerpc/xmon/
arch/sh/
kernel/trace/
However, lib/ has several sub-directories.
To keep the behavior, I added ccflags-remove-y to all Makefiles
in subdirectories of lib/, except the following:
lib/vdso/Makefile - Kbuild does not descend into this Makefile
lib/raid/test/Makefile - This is not used for the kernel build
I think commit 2464a609ded0 ("ftrace: do not trace library functions")
excluded too much. In the next commit, I will remove ccflags-remove-y
from the sub-directories of lib/.

In userspace, the .lzma format has become mostly a legacy file format that
got superseded by the .xz format. Similarly, LZMA Utils was superseded by
XZ Utils.
These patches add support for XZ decompression into the kernel. Most of
the code is as is from XZ Embedded <http://tukaani.org/xz/embedded.html>.
It was written for the Linux kernel but is usable in other projects too.
Advantages of XZ over the current LZMA code in the kernel:
- Nice API that can be used by other kernel modules; it's
not limited to kernel, initramfs, and initrd decompression.
- Integrity check support (CRC32)
- BCJ filters improve compression of executable code on
certain architectures. These together with LZMA2 can
produce a few percent smaller kernel or Squashfs images
than plain LZMA without making the decompression slower.
This patch: Add the main decompression code (xz_dec), testing module
(xz_dec_test), wrapper script (xz_wrap.sh) for the xz command line tool,
and documentation. The xz_dec module is enough to have a usable XZ
decompressor e.g. for Squashfs.
