When the linux-headers are configured to use the same source as the
kernel (BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_AS_KERNEL), and the kernel is configured
to be one of the two CIP versions (BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_LATEST_CIP_VERSION
or BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_LATEST_CIP_RT_VERSION), the build fails if the
kernel sources are not already downloaded:
$ cat defconfig
BR2_LINUX_KERNEL=y
BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_LATEST_CIP_VERSION=y
$ make defconfig BR2_DEFCONFIG=$pwd)/defconfig
$ make linux-headers-source

We fix that by adding yet another duplication of information out of
the linux.mk, to use the CIP-specific git tree where to get the
archives as snapshots.

When Buildroot is released, it knows up to a certain kernel header
version, and no later. However, it is possible that an external
toolchain will be used, that uses headers newer than the latest version
Buildroot knows about.
This may also happen when testing a development, an rc-class, or a newly
released kernel, either in an external toolchain, or with an internal
toolchain with custom headers (same-as-kernel, custom version, custom
git, custom tarball).
In the current state, Buildroot would refuse to use such toolchains,
because the test is for strict equality.
We'd like to make that situation possible, but we also want the user not
to be lenient at the same time, and select the right headers version
when it is known.
So, we add a new Kconfig blind option that the latest kernel headers
version selects. This options is then used to decide whether we do a
strict or loose check of the kernel headers.

Like we did for the linux kernel, change linux-headers to only check the
license hashes for the latest known version as the content of COPYING has
changed between versions.
To simplify the test, we introduce an intermediate, blind option that get
selected when the latest kernel sources are used.

Some installations mount /tmp with the 'noexec' option, which prevents
running the program generated there to check the kernel headers.
Avoid the problem by generating the program under $(BUILD_DIR), passed
as the first argument to check-kernel-headers.sh.
We could globally export a TMPDIR environment variable with some path
under $(BUILD_DIR) but such solution would be too intrusive, depriving
the user from the freedom to set TMPDIR at his will (or needs).

When BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_AS_KERNEL=y, we expect that the Linux kernel
headers code will be exactly the same as the Linux kernel code
itself. The code currently takes into account the patches defined by
BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_PATCH, but not the kernel patches that are stored in
linux's BR2_GLOBAL_PATCH_DIR.
So for example, the current qemu_riscv32_virt_defconfig has:
BR2_GLOBAL_PATCH_DIR="board/qemu/riscv32-virt/patches/"
With:
board/qemu/riscv32-virt/patches/
└── linux
└── 0001-Revert-riscv-Use-latest-system-call-ABI.patch
This patch gets properly applied when the Linux kernel is built, but
not when the linux-headers package is built.
This commit fixes that by making sure patches stored in the "linux"
BR2_GLOBAL_PATCH_DIR subdirectory are taken into account.
