kernel compiler is not special and we currently have it so
we want to pass -march and -mtune options as CFLAGS to kernel
build so that compiler picks the right subarch flags when
compiling assembly files in particular. Otherwise defaults
are chosen which may not be right in many case e.g. when
compiling kernel for collie machine we should use arch=armv4
but it uses toolchain/as defaults which is armv5te
in some case e.g. thumb1 we know that kernel can not be compiled
in thumb1 mode so we can provide that information e.g. -marm
option through KERNEL_HOST_CC_ARCH variable as we do now

It's sometimes useful to have this function available to recipes which
don't wish to use module.bbclass for whatever reason.

KERNEL_LD was using ${LD} in it's definition, which is not correct for
different ABIs such as x32 or i386 on x86_64 machine. This brings it
into sync with the corresponding gcc settings, likewise the same with
the KERNEL_AR variable.

kernel-source do not exist in STAGING_KERNEL_DIR any longer.
Remove the exported KERNEL_SOURCE as the STAGING_KERNEL_DIR can
be used in module recipes directly.
