Subject: Add CONFIG_CC_IS_CLANG and CONFIG_CC_IS_GCC to the KSPP recommendations
X-Git-Url: https://jxself.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=38795d922a53915af937a89cf2d178613756d9a8;p=kconfig-hardened-check.git

Add CONFIG_CC_IS_CLANG and CONFIG_CC_IS_GCC to the KSPP recommendations

It makes the tool show less FAILs.
