[PATCH 2/6] x86/build: Remove cc-option from stack alignment flags

[Nathan Chancellor]

'-mpreferred-stack-boundary' (the GCC option) and '-mstack-alignment'
(the clang option) have been supported in their respective compilers for
some time, so it is unnecessary to check for support for them via
cc-option. '-mpreferred-stack-boundary=3' had a restriction on
'-mno-sse' until GCC 7.1 but that is irrelevant for most of the kernel,
which includes '-mno-sse'.

Move to simple Kconfig checks to avoid querying the compiler for the
flags that it supports.
