This is needed by many services to function properly and as
all modern distributions got it enabled, it starts to be a
de-facto standard, i.e. user-space starts to silently depend
on it.
This also pulls in EXPORTFS, however, the kernel binary size
increases only a little.
On ARM systems comes down to 800 bytes uncompressed and about
200 bytes compressed size.
On MIPS systems it's about 1.2 kB size increase of the LZMA
compressed kernel.
v2: use menuconfig option instead of just enabling the option

It's useful for debugging and safe at the same time as we enable it per
device.

This option will be enabled by default only when cgroups support is enabled.

This change does multiple things, all related to enable sparse usage as
a static analysis tool selectable from the OpenWrt configuration:
*add a KERNEL_SPARSE option in the config to add sparse to the kernel
build (through the C=1 option usage)
*add sparse as a new host tools. It will get selected automatically when
the above option will be enabled

Recent lxc versions are not useful if this option is not enabled. That said,
enable KERNEL_POSIX_MQUEUE by default when KERNEL_LXC_MISC is selected.

Useful when debugging kernel which uses this infrastructure, for
example ubi/ubifs.
