Merge branch 'misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild

Pull misc kbuild updates from Michal Marek:
 "This is the non-critical part of kbuild for 3.17-rc1:

   - make help hint to use make -s with make kernelrelease et al.
   - moved a kbuild document to Documentation/kbuild where it belongs
   - four new Coccinelle scripts, one dropped and one fixed
   - new make kselftest target to run various tests on the kernel"

* 'misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild:
  kbuild: kselftest - new make target to build and run kernel selftests
  Coccinelle: Script to replace if and BUG with BUG_ON
  Coccinelle: Script to detect incorrect argument to sizeof
  Coccinelle: Script to use ARRAY_SIZE instead of division of two sizeofs
  Coccinelle: Script to detect cast after memory allocation
  coccinelle/null: solve parse error
  Documentation: headers_install.txt is part of kbuild
  kbuild: make -s should be used with kernelrelease/kernelversion/image_name

//# This makes an effort to find cases of casting of values returned by
//# kmalloc, kzalloc, kcalloc, kmem_cache_alloc, kmem_cache_zalloc,
//# kmem_cache_alloc_node, kmalloc_node and kzalloc_node and removes
//# the casting as it is not required. The result in the patch case may
