I was trying your top of tree commit

99ea8da56dca "kbuild: use objtool-args-y to clean up objtool arguments"

(merged with Linus' tree and some fix patches).

I am doing a cross build with an out of tree object directory:

$ make ARCH=x86_64 CROSS_COMPILE=x86_64-linux-gnu- O=../x86_64_allmodconfig -s allmodconfig
$ make ARCH=x86_64 CROSS_COMPILE=x86_64-linux-gnu- O=../x86_64_allmodconfig -j100 -O -s

$ x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc --version
x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc (Debian 11.2.0-9) 11.2.0
$ x86_64-linux-gnu-ld --version
GNU ld (GNU Binutils for Debian) 2.37
$ make --version
GNU Make 4.3
Built for powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu

Right, I could not see what caused this, either. I tried reverting
that top commit, but that did not help.
