EXTRA_CFLAGS is not part of the u-boot build system.  CFLAGS is, but it 
is not used in dependency generation.

Prior to that change, HOSTCFLAGS was being used inappropriately in 
generating target dependencies.  If you change the HOSTCFLAGS reference 
in drivers/bios_emulator/Makefile to CPPFLAGS, it works.

Unfortunately, that makefile still has to update CFLAGS as well, because 
it's too late at that point for changes to CPPFLAGS to propagate to CFLAGS.
