[PATCH 10/14] Makefile: introduce CROSS_COMPILE variable

From
Marat Radchenko <marat@slonopotamus.org>

Message-ID

<1412791267-13356-1-git-send-email-marat@slonopotamus.org>

To ease cross-compilation process, introduce a single variable with the prefix to all compiler-related executables.

Define CROSS_COMPILE=foo- if your compiler and binary utilities are foo-cc, foo-ar, foo-strip, etc. More specific variables override this, so if you set CC=gcc CROSS_COMPILE=ia64-linux-gnu- then the compiler will be 'gcc', not 'ia64-linux-gnu-gcc'.
