Define and export OBJSIZE variable for "size" tool from binutils to be
used in architecture specific Makefiles (naming the variable just "SIZE"
would be too risky). In particular this tool is useful to perform checks
that early boot code is not using bss section (which might have not been
zeroed yet or intersects with initrd or other files boot loader might
have put right after the linux kernel).

Currently empty .bss checks performed do not pay attention to "common
objects" in object files which end up in .bss section eventually.
The "size" tool is a part of binutils and since version 2.18 provides
"--common" command line option, which allows to account "common objects"
sizes in .bss section size. Utilize "size --common" to perform accurate
check that .bss section is unused. Besides that the size tool handles
object files without .bss section gracefully and doesn't require
additional objdump run.
The linux kernel requires binutils 2.20 since 4.13.
Kbuild exports OBJSIZE to reference the right size tool.

While you are touching this line,
you may also want to replace 'awk' with $(AWK),
which is defined in the top-level Makefile.

I think you want to apply both to the s390 tree. If so,

Yes, I would take it via s390 tree. Thank you!
