I bisected it to ba2fd563b740 ("tools/bpftool: Support passing
BPFTOOL_VERSION to make"), in v5.9. As BPFTOOL_VERSION became a recursivly
expanded variable, the shell function is evaluated on every expansion of
CFLAGS. I'll add the fix to v3:

-BPFTOOL_VERSION ?= $(shell make -rR --no-print-directory -sC ../../.. kernelversion)
+ifeq ($(BPFTOOL_VERSION),)
+BPFTOOL_VERSION := $(shell make -rR --no-print-directory -sC ../../.. kernelversion)
+endif

Thanks,
Jean
