Merge tag 'kbuild-v5.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/masahiroy/linux-kbuild

Pull Kbuild updates from Masahiro Yamada:

 - Add HOSTPKG_CONFIG env variable to allow users to override pkg-config

 - Support W=e as a shorthand for KCFLAGS=-Werror

 - Fix CONFIG_IKHEADERS build to support toybox cpio

 - Add scripts/dummy-tools/pahole to ease distro packagers' life

 - Suppress false-positive warnings from checksyscalls.sh for W=2 build

 - Factor out the common code of arch/*/boot/install.sh into
   scripts/install.sh

 - Support 'kernel-install' tool in scripts/prune-kernel

 - Refactor module-versioning to link the symbol versions at the final
   link of vmlinux and modules

 - Remove CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS because module-versioning now works in
   an arch-agnostic way

 - Refactor modpost, Makefiles
