You can do like this:


diff --git a/scripts/mod/Makefile b/scripts/mod/Makefile
index 42c5d50..a5b4af4 100644
--- a/scripts/mod/Makefile
+++ b/scripts/mod/Makefile
@@ -4,6 +4,8 @@ OBJECT_FILES_NON_STANDARD := y
 hostprogs-y    := modpost mk_elfconfig
 always         := $(hostprogs-y) empty.o

+CFLAGS_REMOVE_empty.o := $(ASM_MACRO_FLAGS)
+
 modpost-objs   := modpost.o file2alias.o sumversion.o

 devicetable-offsets-file := devicetable-offsets.h





modpost is an exceptional hostprogam - it depends on
target compiler, which makes the build order complicated.

I want to compile under scripts/ only with $(HOSTCC).

I am planning to change modpost
target-independent by detecting
32/64 bit, little/big-endianness run-time.
Then, empty.c will go away.


In the meanwhile, CFLAGS_REMOVE_ will do
as a workaround.
