Makefile: Force gzip and xz on module install
Running `make modules_install` ordinarily will overwrite existing modules. This is the desired behavior, and is how pretty much every other `make install` target works. However, if CONFIG_MODULE_COMPRESS is enabled, modules are passed through gzip and xz which then do the file writing. Both gzip and xz will error out if the file already exists, unless -f is passed. This patch adds -f so that the behavior is uniform. Signed-off-by: Jason A. Donenfeld <Jason@zx2c4.com> Signed-off-by: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.com>
