@Alexey, can we revisit this (revert back partially). I'm getting sick of having
to specify the CROSS_COMPILE in my cmdline.

Will something along the lines fc2b47b55f17fd996f7a019 ("h8300: use
cc-cross-prefix instead of hardcoding h8300-unknown-linux-") work ?

---->
+ifeq ($(CROSS_COMPILE),)
+CROSS_COMPILE := $(call cc-cross-prefix, arc-linux-)
+endif
