treewide: remove meaningless assignments in Makefiles

In Makefiles, $(error ), $(warning ), and $(info ) expand to the empty
string, as explained in the GNU Make manual [1]:
 "The result of the expansion of this function is the empty string."

Therefore, they are no-op except for logging purposes.

$(shell ...) expands to the output of the command. It expands to the
empty string when the command does not print anything to stdout.
Hence, $(shell mkdir ...) is no-op except for creating the directory.

Remove meaningless assignments.
