[PATCH] kbuild: fix compile time regression

From: Arnd Bergmann
Date: Thu Mar 16 2017 - 11:09:46 EST


I noticed that a patch I did causes the time for a clean rebuild to
go up significantly, from 13 to 18 seconds on ARM defconfig, and
in the worst case forcing a rebuild of every file each time.

The fix is very simple, using a ':=' assignment instead of '='
to force the cc-disable-warning call to only be evaluated once
instead of every time.
