The CROSS_COMPILE variable may be present during resolve_btfids build if the kernel is being cross-built. Since resolve_btfids is always executed on the host, we set CC to HOSTCC in order to use the host toolchain when cross-building with GCC. But instead of a toolchain prefix, cross-build with clang uses a "-target" parameter, which Makefile.include deduces from the CROSS_COMPILE variable. In order to avoid cross-building libbpf, clear CROSS_COMPILE before building resolve_btfids.
