That said, there's a few additional places that reset KBUILD_CFLAGS.
$ git grep -rn "KBUILD_CFLAGS :=" | grep -v filter-out | grep -v subst
arch/mips/boot/compressed/Makefile:30:KBUILD_CFLAGS :=
$(KBUILD_CFLAGS) -D__KERNEL__ -D__DISABLE_EXPORTS \
arch/mips/vdso/Makefile:115:$(obj-vdso): KBUILD_CFLAGS :=
$(cflags-vdso) $(native-abi)
arch/mips/vdso/Makefile:144:$(obj-vdso-o32): KBUILD_CFLAGS :=
$(cflags-vdso) -mabi=32
arch/mips/vdso/Makefile:184:$(obj-vdso-n32): KBUILD_CFLAGS :=
$(cflags-vdso) -mabi=n32
arch/parisc/boot/compressed/Makefile:17:KBUILD_CFLAGS := -D__KERNEL__
-O2 -DBOOTLOADER
arch/s390/boot/Makefile:13:KBUILD_CFLAGS := $(KBUILD_CFLAGS_DECOMPRESSOR)
arch/s390/boot/compressed/Makefile:23:KBUILD_CFLAGS :=
$(KBUILD_CFLAGS_DECOMPRESSOR)
arch/s390/purgatory/Makefile:24:KBUILD_CFLAGS := -fno-strict-aliasing
-Wall -Wstrict-prototypes
arch/x86/boot/compressed/Makefile:35:KBUILD_CFLAGS := -m$(BITS) -O2
$(CLANG_FLAGS)
The parisc, s390, and x86 cases look like true positives to me (mips
looks fine FWICT). I didn't want to nack the patch for being
incomplete, but it's not necessarily treewide.
