Hallo All, current 2.4 64bit kernels fail to build for newer toolchains because the -finline-limit=100000 option is ignored. The symptom is some bogus offset.h content which stops the build in arch/mips64/mm/tlbex-r4k.S. This patch fixes it by moving check_gcc in front of its first use, it also removes some stale files if offset.h needs to be regenerated.
