[only about the CMake part, on the Yann's request]
Reviewed-by: Samuel Martin <s.martin49 at gmail.com>

For the record:
This kind of assignation can be fragile because the CMake code may
mess up with the variable (e.g. overriding it).
But here, it is ok because none of the toolchainfile.cmake generated
by BR, nor the rpi-userland CMake code override the CMAKE_C_FLAGS
variable, they just append or prepend stuff to it.
