Ah, perhaps I should combine the following line:
KBUILD_CFLAGS  += $(call
cc-option,-fallow-store-data-races,--param=allow-store-data-races=0)

Though I don't understand the csky failure. cc-option appends to a
running list of flags; if an unsupported flag gets added to CFLAGS, it
can cause cc-option to failure subsequent checks in spooky ways.  I
usually debug those by adding print statements to cc-option to see
what the full command it's testing; then invoke the compiler manually
with those to see what went wrong.  (bookmarked and referenced often:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/16467718/how-to-print-out-a-variable-in-makefile)

Though my distro doesn't package csky-linux-gnu-gcc...
