Masahiro Yamada d37aa2efc8 gcc-plugins: use KERNELVERSION for plugin version 
Commit 61f60bac8c ("gcc-plugins: Change all version strings match
kernel") broke parallel builds.

Instead of adding the dependency between GCC plugins and utsrelease.h,
let's use KERNELVERSION, which does not require any build artifact.

Another reason why I want to avoid utsrelease.h is because it depends
on CONFIG_LOCALVERSION(_AUTO) and localversion* files.

(include/generated/utsrelease.h depends on include/config/kernel.release,
which is generated by scripts/setlocalversion)

I want to keep host tools independent of the kernel configuration.

There is no good reason to rebuild GCC plugins just because of
CONFIG_LOCALVERSION being changed.

We just want to associate the plugin versions with the kernel source
version. KERNELVERSION should be enough for our purpose.

Fixes: 61f60bac8c ("gcc-plugins: Change all version strings match kernel")

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.
