As suggested by Thomas, $(COMMAND_O) will be used to pass the absolute
$(O) for every sub $(MAKE), O= will work like this:

// subdir
$ pwd
/labs/linux-lab/src/linux-stable/tools/testing/selftests/nolibc
$ mkdir -p out
$ make run-user O=out -C /labs/linux-lab/src/linux-stable/tools/testing/selftests/nolibc/ -j4 | grep status
Makefile:122: srctree=/labs/linux-lab/src/linux-stable
Makefile:123: objtree: out
Makefile:124: COMMAND_O: O=/labs/linux-lab/src/linux-stable/tools/testing/selftests/nolibc/out
Makefile:125: OUTPUT=/labs/linux-lab/src/linux-stable/tools/testing/selftests/nolibc/out/
166 test(s): 158 passed, 8 skipped, 0 failed => status: warning

// topdir
$ pwd
/labs/linux-lab/src/linux-stable
$ mkdir -p out
$ make run-user O=out -C /labs/linux-lab/src/linux-stable/tools/testing/selftests/nolibc/ -j4 | grep status
Makefile:122: srctree=/labs/linux-lab/src/linux-stable
Makefile:123: objtree: out
Makefile:124: COMMAND_O: O=/labs/linux-lab/src/linux-stable/out
Makefile:125: OUTPUT=/labs/linux-lab/src/linux-stable/out/
166 test(s): 158 passed, 8 skipped, 0 failed => status: warning

// outside
$ pwd
/labs/linux-lab/build
$ mkdir -p out
$ make run-user O=out -C /labs/linux-lab/src/linux-stable/tools/testing/selftests/nolibc/ -j4 | grep status
Makefile:122: srctree=/labs/linux-lab/src/linux-stable
Makefile:123: objtree: out
Makefile:124: COMMAND_O: O=/labs/linux-lab/build/out
Makefile:125: OUTPUT=/labs/linux-lab/build/out/
166 test(s): 158 passed, 8 skipped, 0 failed => status: warning

The change:

$ grep COMMAND_O -ur tools/testing/selftests/nolibc/Makefile
$(Q)$(MAKE) -C ../../../include/nolibc $(COMMAND_O) ARCH=$(ARCH) OUTPUT=$(OUTPUT)sysroot/ headers_standalone
$(Q)$(MAKE) -C $(srctree) $(COMMAND_O) ARCH=$(ARCH) CC=$(CC) CROSS_COMPILE=$(CROSS_COMPILE) mrproper $(DEFCONFIG) prepare
$(Q)$(MAKE) -C $(srctree) $(COMMAND_O) ARCH=$(ARCH) CC=$(CC) CROSS_COMPILE=$(CROSS_COMPILE) $(IMAGE_NAME) CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE=$(CURDIR)/initramfs

Ok, since you also suggested let's develop in outside directory, it is better
to reserve the left parts as-is ;-)
