You should use KCFLAGS to pass additional compiler flags from the command line. Using EXTRA_CFLAGS is wrong.
EXTRA_CFLAGS is supposed to specify flags applied only to the current Makefile (and now deprecated in favor of ccflags-y).
It is still used in arch/mips/kvm/Makefile (and possibly in external modules too). Passing EXTRA_CFLAGS from the command line overwrites it and breaks the build.
I also fixed drivers/gpu/drm/tilcdc/Makefile because commit 816175dd1fd7 ("drivers/gpu/drm/tilcdc: Makefile, only -Werror when no -W* in EXTRA_CFLAGS") was based on the same misunderstanding.

I've applied this, fixing the conflict with submit-checklist.rst in the process.
