It's because these constructs are gcc-specific :-). Indeed CLANG_FLAGS
probably needs to be defined as I don't think providing the full
AFLAGS/CFLAGS is going to be a good idea and may change the result of
the commands.

Linux has a few clang specific flags in CLANG_FLAGS, I have found those:
    The ones for cross compilation: --prefix, --target, --gcc-toolchain
    -no-integrated-as
    -Werror=unknown-warning-option
And that's it.

So, I think we could keep using CLANG_FLAGS in Kconfig.include and
define it in Makefile with a comment saying that it's only used by
Kconfig. It would always have -Werror=unknown-warning-option and have
-no-integrated-as when needed, the -Wunknown-warning-option is present
in clang 3.0.0, according Linux's commit 589834b3a009 ("kbuild: Add
-Werror=unknown-warning-option to CLANG_FLAGS").

The options -Werror=unknown-warning-option is to make sure that the
warning is enabled, even though it is by default but could be disabled
in a particular build of clang, see e8de12fb7cde ("kbuild: Check for
unknown options with cc-option usage in Kconfig and clang")

I'll write a patch with this new CLANG_FLAGS.
