[PATCH] Fix sparse checks processing

A lot of errors are encountered when building with sparse checking
activated (make C=1 or make C=2).
Many of them are fixed in Linux.
Resynchronise Makefile and include/linux/build_bug.h with Linux
kernel sources by porting the following Linux commits into u-boot:
- 6c49f359ca14 ("kbuild: disable sparse warnings about unknown attributes")
- 80591e61a0f7 ("kbuild: tell sparse about the $ARCH")
- 8788994376d8 ("linux/build_bug.h: change type to int")
- 527edbc18a70 ("build_bug.h: remove most of dummy BUILD_BUG_ON stubs for Sparse")
- c60d3b79423a ("build_bug.h: remove negative-array fallback for BUILD_BUG_ON()")
- 14e83077d55f ("include: drop pointless __compiler_offsetof indirection")
Also revert commit aa9e891c63 ("include/linux/stddef.h: avoid
'warning: preprocessor token offsetof redefined'") because the
error it creates is worse than the warning it is trying to fix.
