Jiri Slaby a90bb65ae2 scripts: dummy-tools, add pahole
CONFIG_PAHOLE_VERSION is a part of a config since the commit below. And
when multiple people update the config, this value constantly changes.
Even if they use dummy scripts.

To fix this, add a pahole dummy script returning v99.99. (This is
translated into 9999 later in the process.)

Thereafter, this script can be invoked easily for example as:
make PAHOLE=scripts/dummy-tools/pahole oldconfig

Fixes: 613fe16923 (kbuild: Add CONFIG_PAHOLE_VERSION)

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
