kbuild: check for wrong use of CFLAGS
External modules have in a few cases modifed gcc option
by modifying CFLAGS. This has never been documented and
was a bad practice.
With the check to use KBUILD_CFLAGS it will no longer work
so we better error out and tell what was wrong as a service
to the external module users.
This check can be overruled if
KBUILD_NOPEDANTIC is set to something.
Addid this possibility may allow older external
module to build without any code modifications but potentially
only loosing some un-important gcc options.
