I do not say it is broken...


cc-option is defined like this:

cc-option = $(call __cc-option, $(CC),\
        $(KBUILD_CPPFLAGS) $(KBUILD_CFLAGS),$(1),$(2))


It is checking
$(KBUILD_CPPFLAGS) + $(KBUILD_CFLAGS)
+ --allow-store-data-races


A few lines above, I see

csky-linux-gcc: error: unrecognized argument in option '-mcpu=ck860'


It makes all the cc-option tests fail after this line:
KBUILD_CFLAGS += -mcpu=$(CPUTYPE) -Wa,-mcpu=$(MCPU_STR)


Then,

$(call cc-option,--allow-store-data-races,--param=allow-store-data-races=0)

falls back to --param=allow-store-data-races=0

I do not think so.

If an unrecognized argument appears,
all the cc-option tests that follow are unreliable.



If you are not comfortable with  it,
you can split it.

KBUILD_CFLAGS  += $(call cc-option,--allow-store-data-races)
KBUILD_CFLAGS  += $(call cc-option,--param=allow-store-data-races=0)



Or, another way of implementation is

KBUILD_CFLAGS += $(call cc-ifversion, -lt, 1000,
--allow-store-data-races, --param=allow-store-data-races=0)
