kbuild: drop support for CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE_O3
The difference in most compilers between `-O3` and `-O2` is mostly down to whether loops with statically determinable trip counts are fully unrolled vs unrolled to a multiple of SIMD width. This patch is effectively a revert of commit15f5db60a1
("kbuild,arc: add CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE_O3 for ARC") without re-adding ARCH_CFLAGS Ever since commitcfdbc2e16e
("ARC: Build system: Makefiles, Kconfig, Linker script") ARC has been built with -O3, though the reason for doing so was not specified in inline comments or the commit message. This commit does not re-add -O3 to arch/arc/Makefile. Folks looking to experiment with `-O3` (or any compiler flag for that matter) may pass them along to the command line invocation of make: $ make KCFLAGS=-O3 Code that looks to re-add an explicit Kconfig option for `-O3` should provide: 1. A rigorous and reproducible performance profile of a reasonable userspace workload that demonstrates a hot loop in the kernel that would benefit from `-O3` over `-O2`. 2. Disassembly of said loop body before and after. 3. Provides stats on terms of increase in file size.
