Add quotes around $(CC) when calling check_cc.sh from a Makefile to
pass the value as a single argument to the script even if it has
several words such as "ccache gcc".  Conversely, remove quotes in
check_cc.sh when calling $CC to make it a command with potentially
several arguments again.

I see the change in check_cc.sh is already covered by Usama's patch:

  selftests/x86: Add validity check and allow field splitting

-if "$CC" -o /dev/null "$TESTPROG" -O0 "$@" 2>/dev/null; then
+if [ -n "$CC" ] && $CC -o /dev/null "$TESTPROG" -O0 "$@" 2>/dev/null; then


However, the rest of this patch in the Makefiles still needs to
be applied.  Let me know if I should rebase it on top of Usama's.

Thanks,
Guillaume

This changelog describes the fix, but it fails to describe the problem
which the patch is fixing!

Presumably, we're hitting some form of runtime failure under
undescribed circumstances when running selftests.  But that's just me
reverse-engineering the patch description.  And me reverse-engineering
stuff is a gloriously unreliable thing.  Please spell out the problem.

Thanks for the review.  I've just sent a v2 which is rebased on
other changes in linux-next and with a reworked commit message
which should hopefully be clearer.  The issue was seen when
building some kselftest binaries and $CC is defined with multiple
arguments such as "ccache gcc".
