Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: fix duplicated flags in DEBUG_CFLAGS

Sedat Dilek noticed duplicated debug flags passed when building C
files with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO.

I do not know much about his build environment, but yes, Kbuild
recurses to the top Makefile with some build targets. For example,
'make CC=clang bindeb-pkg' reproduces the issue.

With commit 121c5d08d53c ("kbuild: Only add -fno-var-tracking-assignments
for old GCC versions") applied, DEBUG_CFLAGS is now reset only when
CONFIG_CC_IS_GCC=y.

Fix it to reset DEBUG_CFLAGS also when using Clang.

Fixes: 121c5d08d53c ("kbuild: Only add -fno-var-tracking-assignments for old GCC versions")
