Bruce Ashfield 81e8a52e8e kernel: specify dependencies for compilation for config tasks
With recent kernels (i.e. 4.17+) the configuration phase of the kernel
will check for capabilities/options of the compiler for CVE and other
mitigation support.

For a general kernel, we want to ensure that CC is fully defined when
the config targets are invoked (so the proper compiler will be checked).

For linux-yocto, we also need to specify the compiler/tools dependencies
for the configme task since it executes before configure and hence the
main kernel build DEPENDS will not always be in the sysroot before it
executes. Without those dependencies the kernel will be incorrectly
configured (i.e. bison is missing) or the configuration will fail the
mitigation tests.

QEMU Emulation Targets
======================

To simplify development, the build system supports building images to
work with the QEMU emulator in system emulation mode. Several architectures
are currently supported in 32 and 64 bit variants:

  * ARM (qemuarm + qemuarm64)
  * x86 (qemux86 + qemux86-64)
  * PowerPC (qemuppc only)
  * MIPS (qemumips + qemumips64)

Use of the QEMU images is covered in the Yocto Project Reference Manual.
The appropriate MACHINE variable value corresponding to the target is given
in brackets.
