If CONFIG_E500 is enabled, the compilation flags are updated
specifying the target core -mcpu=e5500/e500mc/8540
Also remove -Wa,-me500, being incompatible with -mcpu=e5500/e6500
The assembler option is redundant if the -mcpu= flag is set.
The patch fixes the kernel compilation problem for e5500/e6500
when using gcc option -mcpu=e5500/e6500.

changes for v2: 
    - update also KBUILD_AFLAGS with -mcpu and -msoft-float flags

Is the assembler redundant for older toolchains?

[CU] gcc defines the mapping from -mcpu to assembler options in file
gcc/config/rs6000/rs6000.h, like this:
	%{mcpu=8540: -me500} \
	%{mcpu=8548: -me500} \
	%{mcpu=e300c2: -me300} \
	%{mcpu=e300c3: -me300} \
	%{mcpu=e500mc: -me500mc} \
	%{mcpu=e500mc64: -me500mc64} \
	%{mcpu=e5500: -me5500} \
	%{mcpu=e6500: -me6500} \

I have checked this mapping from gcc 3.3 (where 8540 entry was added) to
3.4, 4.3, 4.4 and 4.8.1...The -Wa option is redundant for all these
older toolchains.

Instead of specifying -msoft-float here, shouldn't it go on the main  
KBUILD_AFLAGS in arch/powerpc/Makefile, right next to where it's added  
for KBUILD_CFLAGS?
