Add kbuild.h that contains common definitions for kbuild users

The same definitions are used for the bounds logic and the asm-offsets.h
generation by kbuild.  Put them into include/linux/kbuild.h file.

Also add a new feature

	COMMENT("text")

which can be used to insert lines of ocmments into asm-offsets.h and
bounds.h.
