This patch allows to build the whole kernel with GCC plugins. It was ported from grsecurity/PaX. The infrastructure supports building out-of-tree modules and building in a separate directory. Cross-compilation is supported too but currently only the x86 architecture enables plugins.
I've tested this with both ARM and ARM64. There are some missing headers in the arm64 gcc, reported here: https://bugs.linaro.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2123 (also upstream), but this should work once that is fixed. Feel free to fold these into your patch, or, if you prefer, I can send out separate patches for them.
