At least the i915 and amd drivers enable a bunch more compiler warnings
than the kernel defaults.

Extend the W=1 warnings to the entire drm subsystem by default. Use the
copy-pasted warnings from scripts/Makefile.extrawarn with
s/KBUILD_CFLAGS/subdir-ccflags-y/ to make it easier to compare and keep
up with them in the future.

This is similar to the approach currently used in i915.

Some of the -Wextra warnings do need to be disabled, just like in
Makefile.extrawarn, but take care to not disable them for W=2 or W=3
builds, depending on the warning.

I think this should go in after drm-misc-next has a clean build (for
COMPILE_TEST builds) with this patch applied. Otherwise, it will break a
lot of build configs.

With my admittedly limited and very much x86 focused kernel config, I
get some -Wunused-but-set-variable and -Wformat-truncation= warnings,
but nothing we can't handle.

We could fix them up front, or disable the extra warnings on a per
driver basis with a FIXME comment in their respective Makefiles.

With the experience from i915, I think this would significantly reduce
the constant loop of warnings added by people not using W=1 and
subsequently fixed by people using W=1.

Note: I've Cc'd the maintainers of drm, drm misc and some of the biggest
drivers.
