I'm using archlinux on my workstation which got a fairly
recent version of GCC which is used to build the host tools:
gcc (GCC) 15.2.1 20260209
When trying to use the u-boot-size-test.sh scripts you had asked me for
it failed because of passing the '-E' parameter to buildman.
Also 'dtc' fails building for the same reason and that can be fixed by
picking commit dfe057874b34c ("scripts/dtc: Update to upstream versionv
1.7.2-62-ga26ef6400bd8") from Linux.
However, that has far-reaching consequences such as the
-Wno-graph_child_address parameter no longer existing, and also dtc
became more strict and issues new warnings for many of the dts files in
U-Boot, so then the build failed because of that...
As I wrote in the other email thread, I ended up just removing the '-E'
paramter because the rabbit hole became too deep...
