This is obviously correct. It happens that we execute gcc several times for just about any target due to the: CFLAGS += $(call cc-option, xxx)
And refactoring the top-level Makefile to avoid this is on my TODO list. But it is a major crunch to do correct...
The primary objective to do so is btw not to solve this issue but more to get the top-level Makefile off the top-10 list of the most ureadable unmaitaninable unhackable code in the kernel.
