[PATCH] kbuild: Add $(strip ...) before compare make variable with string

From: Wang Nan
Date: Sat Apr 25 2020 - 02:09:27 EST


Some of ifneq in Makefile.build works improperly:

ifneq ($(a)$(b)$(c),)
...
endif

Because some make vairable contains unintended spaces introduced by:

a := $(x) $(y)

This commit adds $(strip ...) to some potentially buggy ifneq.
