    script/checkpatch.pl: warn about deprecated use of EXTRA_{A,C,CPP,LD}FLAGS · c68e5878

    Usage of these flags has been deprecated for nearly 4 years by:
    
        commit f77bf014
    
    
        Author: Sam Ravnborg <sam@neptun.(none)>
        Date:   Mon Oct 15 22:25:06 2007 +0200
    
            kbuild: introduce ccflags-y, asflags-y and ldflags-y
    
    Moreover, these flags (at least EXTRA_CFLAGS) have been documented for command
    line use. By default, gmake(1) do not override command line setting, so this is
    likely to result in build failure or unexpected behavior.
    
    Warn about their introduction in Makefile or Kbuild files.
