Pull kbuild changes from Michal Marek:
"The main part of kbuild for v3.7 contains:
- Fix for scripts/Makefile.modpost to not choke on a '.ko' substring
in the build directory path
- Two warning fixes (modpost and main Makefile)
- __compiletime_error works also with gcc 4.3
- make tar{gz,bz2,xz}-pkg uses default compression settings instead
of saving as many bytes as possible (this should actually be in the
misc branch, I don't know why I applied it here)."
* 'kbuild' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild:
compiler-gcc4.h: correct verion check for __compiletime_error
modpost: Permit .GCC.command.line sections
Kbuild: use normal compression settings for tar*-pkg
scripts/Makefile.modpost: error in finding modules from .mod files.
kbuild: Remove useless warning while appending KCFLAGS

For large kernel configurations (like a distribution kernel)
targz-pkg takes a quite long time to just do the compression.
I clocked it at 15+mins for a SUSE kernel like config on a fast
system. And tarxz and bzip2 are even slower.
The main reason is that the script that is doing the taring sets
the highest compression level (-9). When I change it to just
use the defaults the gzip time for the same kernel goes down
to ~3 mins. I haven't tested xz and bzip, but I expect those
to be much faster too.
I'm not willing to wait that long for a small compression
gain. So just change the script to use the defaults.

There were reports of users destroying their Fedora installs by a kernel
tarball that replaces the /lib -> /usr/lib symlink. Let's remove the
toplevel directories from the tarball to prevent this from happening.

Use the --owner= and --group= options to make sure the entries in
the built tar file are owned by root. Without this change, a
careless sysadmin using the tar-pkg target can easily end up
installing a kernel that is writable by the unprivileged user
account used to build the kernel.
Test that these options are understood before using them so that
non-GNU versions of tar can still be used if the operator is
appropriately cautious.

Fix out-of-tree builds for the tar-pkg targets
When I wrote the buildtar script, I didn't even think about
out-of-tree builds because I didn't use these back then. This patch
throughoutly uses ${objtree} instead of `pwd`.
Also, the kernel version is no longer manually built. Instead, it will
properly use $KERNELRELEASE . Installing modules is only done if
CONFIG_MODULES is set.

It adds tarball packaging, which I prefer for distribution.
Also one of the two blanks after @echo is removed. One seems to be enough :)
