The use of an undefined macro in an #if directive is warned, but only in *.c files. No warning from other files such as *.S, *.lds.S. Since -Wundef is a preprocessor-related warning, it should be added to KBUILD_CPPFLAGS instead of KBUILD_CFLAGS. My previous attempt [1] uncovered several warnings, and could not finish fixing them all. This commit adds -Wundef to KBUILD_CPPFLAGS for W=1 builds in order to block new breakages. (The kbuild test robot tests with W=1) We can fix the warnings one by one. After we fix all of them, we can make this default in the top Makefile, and remove -Wundef from KBUILD_CFLAGS.
