The patch

commit 941214a512d8c80d47e720c17ec17e8539175e93
Author: Andrew Davis <afd at ti.com>
Date:   Mon Oct 24 12:34:29 2022 -0500

    kbuild: Allow DTB overlays to built into .dtbo.S files

broke the build reproducibility / no-op builds.

Before:
  2+ execution of `make` on non-changed tree did nothing

Now:
  Each run of `make` (even without a single bit changed) restarts vmlinux
  rebuild.

Please, revert or fix.
