Mikulas Patocka 14c47b54b0 objtool: Fix 64-bit build on 32-bit host
The new ORC unwinder breaks the build of a 64-bit kernel on a 32-bit
host.  Building the kernel on a i386 or x32 host fails with:

  orc_dump.c: In function 'orc_dump':
  orc_dump.c:105:26: error: passing argument 2 of 'elf_getshdrnum' from incompatible pointer type [-Werror=incompatible-pointer-types]
    if (elf_getshdrnum(elf, &nr_sections)) {
                            ^
  In file included from /usr/local/include/gelf.h:32:0,
                   from elf.h:22,
                   from warn.h:26,
                   from orc_dump.c:20:
  /usr/local/include/libelf.h:304:12: note: expected 'size_t * {aka unsigned int *}' but argument is of type 'long unsigned int *'
   extern int elf_getshdrnum (Elf *__elf, size_t *__dst);
              ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  orc_dump.c:190:17: error: format '%lx' expects argument of type 'long unsigned int', but argument 3 has type 'Elf64_Sxword {aka long long int}' [-Werror=format=]
      printf("%s+%lx:", name, rela.r_addend);
                 ~~^          ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
                 %llx

Fix the build failure.

Another problem is that if the user specifies HOSTCC or HOSTLD
variables, they are ignored in the objtool makefile.  Change the
Makefile to respect these variables.

README

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.
