kbuild: remove GCC_VERSION

This was causing some ordering problems.  Remove the up-front evaluation
and just revaluate the compiler version each time we need it.

(The up-front evaluation was problematic because some architectures modify
the value of $(CC)).

        In the above example -mregparm=3 is only used for gcc version greater
        than or equal to gcc 3.0.
