The ccache tool can be used to speed up cross-compilation, by calling the
compiler and binutils through ccache. For example, following should work:

    $ export ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE="ccache aarch64-linux-gnu-"

    $ make M=drivers/gpu/drm/rockchip/

but pahole fails to extract the BTF info from DWARF, breaking the build:

      CC [M]  drivers/gpu/drm/rockchip//rockchipdrm.mod.o
      LD [M]  drivers/gpu/drm/rockchip//rockchipdrm.ko
      BTF [M] drivers/gpu/drm/rockchip//rockchipdrm.ko
    aarch64-linux-gnu-objcopy: invalid option -- 'J'
    Usage: aarch64-linux-gnu-objcopy [option(s)] in-file [out-file]
     Copies a binary file, possibly transforming it in the process
    ...
    make[1]: *** [scripts/Makefile.modpost:156: __modpost] Error 2
    make: *** [Makefile:1866: modules] Error 2

this fails because OBJCOPY is set to "ccache aarch64-linux-gnu-copy" and
later pahole is executed with the following command line:

    LLVM_OBJCOPY=$(OBJCOPY) $(PAHOLE) -J --btf_base vmlinux $@

which gets expanded to:

    LLVM_OBJCOPY=ccache aarch64-linux-gnu-objcopy pahole -J ...

instead of:

    LLVM_OBJCOPY="ccache aarch64-linux-gnu-objcopy" pahole -J ...

Fixes: 5f9ae91f7c0d ("kbuild: Build kernel module BTFs if BTF is enabled and pahole supports it")
