[PATCH] kbuild: disable Android-specific compiler features

[Kees Cook]

The Android compilers enable some non-standard features by default. While
most Android build systems inject the needed "-mno-android" option via
KCFLAGS, it happens too late (at least on x86_64), since KBUILD_CFLAGS
gains KCFLAGS after running (and failing) many cc-option tests. (For
example, the stack-protector tests happen after arch-specific
KBUILD_CFLAGS are added but before the external KCFLAGS are added.) As
such, we should notice this option and immediately turn it on as the
first cc-option test we run.
