Currently, the KERNEL_DEBUG_TIMESTAMPS is not working as expected
at rebuild. That is, even if we set it to "1", the kernel build time
is not changed. The problem could be reproduced by the following steps.
1. bitbake core-image-minimal; start image and check `uname -a` output.
2. set in local.conf: KERNEL_DEBUG_TIMESTAMPS = "1"
3. bitbake core-image-minimal; start image and check `uname -a` output.
It's expected that after enabling KERNEL_DEBUG_TIMESTAMPS, the kernel
build time will be set to current date. But it's not. This is because
the compile.h was not re-generated when do_compile task was re-executed.
In mkcompile_h, we have:
"""
"""
It has made it very clear that it will not be re-generated unless
we have KBUILD_BUILD_TIMESTAMP set explicitly. So we set this variable
explicitly in do_compile to fix this issue.
