We no longer use this directory for generated files and
all architectures has moved their header files so no
symlink tricks are needed either.
Drop the symlink and drop the ARCH check.
If we really need to check that the SRCARCH has not changed
when we build a kernel we can add this check back - but then we will
find a more convenient way to store the info.

The simplest method was to add an extra asm-offsets.h
file in arch/$ARCH/include/asm that references the generated file.
We can now migrate the architectures one-by-one to reference
the generated file direct - and when done we can delete the
temporary arch/$ARCH/include/asm/asm-offsets.h file.

We need a location for generated files.
Today they are spread over several places and bringing them
together to a common place makes it obvious hat is generated
and what isreal files.
Al Viro originally suggested: include/gen
Linus suggested to spell it out.
This patch implement support for
include/generated
All files in include/generated are ignored by git.
include/generated is removed during "make mrproper".
With this we are ready to implement support for include/generated
in the various architctures and in the base kernel.

Removed vmlinux* rule because it matches too many useful files, replacing
it with rules matching filetype by filename (e.g. *.gz). Also unignored
.mailmap from the top directory. Added a comment telling the user how to
check for tracked files being ignored.

With commit 3f1b0e1f28 ".gitignore update"
Linus's current git tree starts to ignore any "*.rej" files.
So "git status" no longer shows these files, but the ones who works with
quilt patchsets, this not makes life easier as expected.
Because sometimes a work flow (at least for me) requires
"quilt push -f" followed by "git status" to see unresolved merge
conflicts, work on these conflicts to correct them and finalize
the patch with "quilt refresh".
And if there are some "*.rej" files exists in tree, for whatever
reason, this means something goes really wrong there and i think
this situation not deserves to be ignored.

We ignore all the generated files called "vmlinux*" from the top-level
gitignore, but that also ends up catching a few files that we track, and
that people do edit. Notably the "vmlinux.lds.S" file, that each
architecture has.
You can always use "git add -f" to override the ignore file, but we
might as well just make it explicit for this file.
