Another conflict was reported in -next between this change and
commit c437950dceb8 ("alpha: add self-extracting compressed kernel boot
stub") in your current tree.

  https://lore.kernel.org/atibhAMcgKle37-g@xxxxxxxxxxxx/

Mark's resolution is not correct though. Discard the conflicting change
in arch/alpha/boot/Makefile (i.e., the first hunk) then apply the fix
from the kbuild commit to arch/alpha/boot/compressed/Makefile. See my
current merge for -next for the expected result.

  https://git.kernel.org/kbuild/c/83deedcf85af511dc120b3cd8ee597d211cdf2fb

Also, there will be another conflict with the rust tree in init/Kconfig
similar to the random one, Mark's resolution looks correct to me.
