-> Rebuilds everything.

This doesn't occur before the offending commit. So it only happens
when specifying extra environment variables on the command line.

I suspect if you also provide the CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y on the
dtbs line, everything will work properly.

Yay, it works! :)

The problem is that dtbs line executes a prepare, which I guess rebuilds
the bounds stuff.  So, the dtbs target results in it being rebuilt without
the section mismatch, and then you re-execute a make with it, causing
the bounds stuff to be rebuilt again.

Yep. Not very intuitive to require passing section mismatch debug
flags to DTB rebuilding but whatever, it's not so bad I can't live with
it.

Strange that it worked before.
