I'd prefer to see this below, right before the BUILD_CMDS, as follows:

define CACHE_CALIBRATOR_EXTRACT_CMDS
	cp $(DL_DIR)/$(CACHE_CALIBRATOR_SOURCE) $(@D)
endef

Even though it doesn't change anything, we generally try to use:

VARIABLE = value

for things that are just "values". And:

define VARIABLE_CMDS
	...
endef

for variables that contain commands.

Thanks,

Thomas
