Recent slowdown in single object builds

Hi,
I've noticed that current -git is a lot slower at doing single object
builds than earlier kernels. Here's an example, building the exact same
file on 5.2 and -git:
$ time make fs/io_uring.o
real 0m5.953s
user 0m5.402s
sys 0m0.649s
vs 5.2 based (with all the backports, identical file):
$ time make fs/io_uring.o
real 0m3.218s
user 0m2.968s
sys 0m0.520s
Any idea what's going on here? It's almost twice as slow, which is
problematic...
