The purpose of this submission is to expose -O3 for all the
architectures, not only ARC, since it helps in hunting some bugs (see
the commit message for specific example).

Previously this was posted as RFC here: [1]. With this submission I'm
addressing Krzysztof's concern regarding commit message. No other
changes are made.

The RFC was accepted into -mm tree here: [2]. If needed, please replace
that one with this one since this one has a nicer commit message.

The patch is made against next-20191210 tag.

Thanks.

Building a kernel with -O3 may help in hunting bugs like [1] and thus
using this switch should not be restricted to one specific arch only.

With that, lets expose it for everyone.
