A few lines below in the main Makefile:

   513  ifeq ($(mixed-targets),1)
   514  #
======================================================================
=====
   515  # We're called with mixed targets (*config and build targets).
   516  # Handle them one by one.
   517
   518  PHONY += $(MAKECMDGOALS) __build_one_by_one
   519
   520  $(filter-out __build_one_by_one, $(MAKECMDGOALS)):
__build_one_by_one
   521          @:
   522
   523  __build_one_by_one:
   524          $(Q)set -e; \
   525          for i in $(MAKECMDGOALS); do \
   526                  $(MAKE) -f $(srctree)/Makefile $$i; \
   527          done
