IIUC, it will, b/c we're doing:

    HOST_OVERRIDES := ... EXTRA_CFLAGS="$(HOSTCFLAGS)"

and then pass HOST_OVERRIDES to libbpf and libsubcmd builds, which will
then pick EXTRA_CFLAGS as a part of their build.

Confirmed for libsubcmd:

    $ make HOSTCFLAGS="-O2" V=1 | grep libsubcmd | grep O2 | wc -l
    14
    $ make V=1 | grep libsubcmd | grep O2 | wc -l
    0

Interestingly, I couldn't do the same for libbpf. It looks like libbpf
is not rebuilt for resolve_btfids b/c resolve_btfids/Makefile uses
$(BPFOBJ) as the libbpf target and selftests/bpf/Makefile passes
BPFOBJ=$(HOST_BPFOBJ) to the resolve_btfids build. So, an already built
libbpf is reused and that one hasn't picked HOSTCFLAGS.

I'd like to avoid that b/c then, we would need to issue a different make
command for the BPF selftests than for the rest of the kernel to pass
custom flags to host-built programs.

That will be useful, thanks :-)
