Thorsten reported build issue with command line that defined extra
HOSTCFLAGS that were not passed into 'prepare' targets, but were
used to build resolve_btfids objects.
This results in build fail when these objects are linked together:
/usr/bin/ld: /build.../tools/bpf/resolve_btfids//libbpf/libbpf.a(libbpf-in.o):
relocation R_X86_64_32 against `.rodata.str1.1' can not be used when making a PIE \
object; recompile with -fPIE
Fixing this by passing HOSTCFLAGS in EXTRA_CFLAGS as part of
HOST_OVERRIDES variable for prepare targets.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
