setlocalversion script was testing the presence of .git directory in
order to find out if git is used as SCM to track the current kernel
project. However in some cases, .git is not a directory but can be a
file: when the kernel is a git submodule part of a git super project for
example.

This patch just fixes this by using 'git rev-parse --show-cdup' to check
that the current directory is the kernel git topdir. This has the
advantage to not test and rely on git internal infrastructure directly.

When using '!Ffile function' in a docbook template, and the function no
longer exists, you get a "no structured comments found" error from the
kernel-doc processing script.  It's useful to know which functions it was
looking for, so print them out in this case.  Also do the same for '!Pfile
doc-section'

The same error also happens when using '!Efile' when some exported
functions aren't documented (in the same file.) There's a very large
number of such functions though, so don't print the message in this case
-- right now it would give ~850 messages.

When expert configuration option(CONFIG_EXPERT) is enabled, menuconfig
offers a choice of compression algorithm to compress initial ramfs image;
This choice is stored into CONFIG_RD_* variables.  But usr/Makefile uses
earlier INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_* macros to build initial ramfs file.  Since
none of them is defined, resulting 'initramfs_data.cpio' file remains
un-compressed.

This patch updates the Makefile to use CONFIG_RD_* variables and adds
support for LZ4 compression algorithm.  Also updates the
'gen_initramfs_list.sh' script to check whether a selected compression
command is accessible or not.  And fall-back to default gzip(1)
compression when it is not.

"In general, if checkpatch.pl complains about a variable a patch

So, if checking a patch, scan the original patched file if it's available
and add any preexisting CamelCase types so reuses do not generate
CamelCase messages.
