From e8b6077566df5d6479b68cbd3fd490ab0812424e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: "H. Peter Anvin" <hpa@zytor.com>

Subject: [PATCH] [makefile] Avoid using ?=

?= in a Makefile means that that variable can be overridden by the
environment.  This is confusing to users, especially with a generic
name like "ARCH".
