After installing the ARC toolchain (which was a bit painful to track
down and install...) I reproduced your exact problem. I believe the
patch below fixes it:

diff --git a/arch/arc/boot/dts/Makefile b/arch/arc/boot/dts/Makefile
index 5776835..2f2cf23 100644
--- a/arch/arc/boot/dts/Makefile
+++ b/arch/arc/boot/dts/Makefile
@@ -8,6 +8,8 @@ endif
obj-y += $(builtindtb-y).dtb.o
targets += $(builtindtb-y).dtb

+.SECONDARY: $(obj)/$(builtindtb-y).dtb.S
+
dtbs: $(addprefix $(obj)/, $(builtindtb-y).dtb)

clean-files := *.dtb
