In some cases there might be:

Here you could use

ccflags-y += -D__CHECK_ENDIAN__

for example, or even

subdir-ccflags-y += -D__CHECK_ENDIAN__

(in case any subdirs ever get added here)

Looks like you did that here and in some other places though - so
perhaps the s390 one was intentionally different?

Technically this is slightly more than advertised, but I guess that
still makes sense if it's clean now.
