CONFIG_WERROR turns warnings into errors, which happens only for *.c
files because -Werror is added to KBUILD_CFLAGS.
Adding it to KBUILD_CPPFLAGS makes more sense because preprocessors
understand the -Werror option.
For example, you can put a #warning directive in any preprocessed code.
warning: #warning "this is a warning message" [-Wcpp]
If -Werror is added, it is promoted to an error.
error: #warning "this is a warning message" [-Werror=cpp]
This commit moves -Werror to KBUILD_CPPFLAGS so it works in the same way
for *.c, *.S, *.lds.S or whatever needs preprocessing.
