Subject[PATCH v3] Makefile: enable -Werror=implicit-int and -Werror=strict-prototypes by default
Date
The common error fount in forward-ported/backported patches is missing headers.
One recent example (files and function names are mangled):

void foo(){}
EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo);

gave only warning

foo.c:12345678:5: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype [-Wstrict-prototypes]
void foo(){}
^

foo.c:12345679:5: warning: data definition has no type or storage class [enabled by default]
EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo);
foo.c:12345679:5: warning: type defaults to 'int' in declaration of 'EXORT_SYMBOL' [-Werror=implicit-int]

Now it's a fatal error. Tested on x86_64 allyesconfig.

Change since v2:
- moved CFLAGS checks lower to catch $(CROSS) case
as suggested by Geert
- added comments as other warning options do

Change since v1:
- use 'cc-option' to respect old gccs
- fix typos. Thanks to Oleg Verych
