Normally updates to the source directory files are guarded with
--enable-maintainer-mode, e.g. we don't regenerate configure, config.h,
Makefile.in in directories that use automake etc. unless gcc is configured
that way. Otherwise the source tree can't be e.g. stored on a read-only
filesystem etc.
In gcc/Makefile.in we use @MAINT@ for that but that works because
gcc/Makefile is generated by configure. In config/*/t-* files we need to
check $(ENABLE_MAINTAINER_RULES):
# The following provides the variable ENABLE_MAINTAINER_RULES that can
# be used in language Make-lang.in makefile fragments to enable
# maintainer rules. So, ENABLE_MAINTAINER_RULES is 'true' in
# maintainer mode, and '' otherwise.
@MAINT@ ENABLE_MAINTAINER_RULES = true

I've tried if aarch64-tune.md will be read from the build dir, but it is
not. The gen* files can use -I options to add additional directories, but
they don't use them.
Here is a variant patch which will complain and fail if there is a change
and --enable-maintainer-mode is not enabled.
