linux-next: build failure after merge of the devicetree tree

Hi all,

After merging the devicetree tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc
ppc64_defconfig) failed like this:

scripts/Makefile.dtbs:4: *** Recursive variable 'dtb-' references itself (eventually). Stop.

Presumably caused by commit

e0f5d8e3fe94 ("kbuild: Ensure .dtbo targets are applied to a base .dtb")

I have used the devicetree tree from next-20251114.
