I disagree.

LLVM=1 is a shorthand.



make LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1

  should be equivalent to:

make CC=clang LD=ld.lld AR=llvm-ar NM=llvm-nm STRIP=llvm-strip \
  OBJCOPY=llvm-objcopy OBJDUMP=llvm-objdump READELF=llvm-readelf \
  HOSTCC=clang HOSTCXX=clang++ HOSTAR=llvm-ar HOSTLD=ld.lld \
  LLVM_IAS=1



We do not care about the origin of CC=clang,
whether it came from LLVM=1 or every tool was explicitly,
individually specified.



ifneq ($(LLVM),) is a garbage code
that checks a pointless thing.
