The cc-option macro creates the temporary directory, .tmp_$$$$.
Shell expands '$$' into its process ID. '$$$$' results in repeated PID.
In Makefile, '$$$$' is correct (see TMPOUT in scripts/Malefile.compiler)
because '$$' is an escape sequence of '$'. Make expands '$$$$' into '$$',
then shell expands it into the process ID.
This does not apply to Kconfig because Kconfig requires variable
references to be enclosed by curly braces, like ${variable}.
The '$' that is not followed by '{' loses its effect.
