Good point, however, as I mentioned in the commit log we still occasionally see compile warnings in upstream code and we cannot have the build fail in ARK/Fedora due to those errors. That would bring ARK/Fedora to a halt :(. As such, I am not enabling CONFIG_WERROR in ARK/Fedora.
As for the top-level Makefile, I also addressed in the commit log: there is enough RHEL only code here that I'd prefer not to put it in the top-level Makefile as doing so would make future rebases in ARK/Fedora more difficult for @ptalbert and @jmflinuxtx. That's why I've put the code in out top-level makefile instead of the Makefile.
@ptalbert and @jmflinuxtx? Thoughts? Am I overthinking this and maybe I should just put the code in the top-level Makefile?
