This series makes genksyms remember the values of enum constants and use them
during symbol expansion. This makes sure that patches like

| enum e {
| E1,
| E2,
|+ E3,
| E_MAX
| };
|
| struct s {
| int a[E_MAX];
| }
|
| int f(struct s *s) { ... }
| EXPORT_SYMBOL(f)

change the checksum of the exported symbol. Previously, it would just use the
string "E_MAX" in the calculation and the change would go unnoticed. The main
part is in patches 6/7 and 7/7, the rest are cleanups and preparatory patches.
