commit 9feeb638cde083c737e295c0547f1b4f28e99583 upstream.
In 2016 GNU Make made a backwards incompatible change to the way '#'
characters were handled in Makefiles when used inside functions or
macros:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/make.git/commit/?id=c6966b323811c37acedff05b57
Due to this change, when attempting to run `make prepare' I get a
spurious make syntax error:
/home/earnest/linux/tools/objtool/.fixdep.o.cmd:1: *** missing separator. Stop.
When inspecting `.fixdep.o.cmd' it includes two lines which use
unescaped comment characters at the top:
\# cannot find fixdep (/home/earnest/linux/tools/objtool//fixdep)
\# using basic dep data
This is because `tools/build/Build.include' prints these '\#'
characters:
printf '\# cannot find fixdep (%s)\n' $(fixdep) > $(dot-target).cmd; \
printf '\# using basic dep data\n\n' >> $(dot-target).cmd; \
This completes commit 9564a8cf422d ("Kbuild: fix # escaping in .cmd files
for future Make").

Making the fixdep helper to be invoked within dep-cmd.
Each user of the build framework needs to make sure fixdep exists before
executing the build itself.
If the build doesn't find fixdep, it falls back to the old style
dependency tracking.

Adding new build framework into 'tools/build' to be used by tools.
There's no change for actual building at this point, it comes in the
next patches.
The idea and more details are explained in the
'tools/build/Documentation/Build.txt' file.
I adopted everything from the kernel build system, with some changes to
allow for multiple binaries build definitions.
While the kernel's build output is single image (forget modules) we need
to be able to build several binaries/libraries.
The basic idea is that sser provides 'Build' files with objects
definitions like:
perf-y += a.o
perf-y += b.o
libperf-y += c.o
libperf-y += d.o
and the build framework outputs files:
perf-in.o # a.o, b.o compiled in
libperf-in.o # c.o, d.o compiled in
