KBUILD_CFLAGS is very carefully built up in the top level Makefile,
particularly when cross compiling or using different build tools.
Resetting KBUILD_CFLAGS via := assignment is an antipattern.
The comment above the reset mentions that -pg is problematic. Other
Makefiles use `CFLAGS_REMOVE_file.o = $(CC_FLAGS_FTRACE)` when
CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER is set. Prefer that pattern to wiping out all of
the important KBUILD_CFLAGS then manually having to re-add them. Seems
also that __stack_chk_fail references are generated when using
CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR or CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
