Björn Töpel 537a2525ea tools: Override makefile ARCH variable if defined, but empty ... There are a number of tools (bpftool, selftests), that require a "bootstrap" build. Here, a bootstrap build is a build host variant of a target. E.g., assume that you're performing a bpftool cross-build on x86 to riscv, a bootstrap build would then be an x86 variant of bpftool. The typical way to perform the host build variant, is to pass "ARCH=" in a sub-make. However, if a variable has been set with a command argument, then ordinary assignments in the makefile are ignored. This side-effect results in that ARCH, and variables depending on ARCH are not set. Workaround by overriding ARCH to the host arch, if ARCH is empty.
