I noticed that a patch I did causes the time for a clean rebuild to go up significantly, from 13 to 18 seconds on ARM defconfig, and in the worst case forcing a rebuild of every file each time. The fix is very simple, using a ':=' assignment instead of '=' to force the cc-disable-warning call to only be evaluated once instead of every time.
