kbuild: handle multi-objs dependency appropriately
The comment in scripts/Makefile.build says as follows: We would rather have a list of rules like foo.o: $(foo-objs) but that's not so easy, so we rather make all composite objects depend on the set of all their parts This commit makes it possible! For example, assume a Makefile like this obj-m = foo.o bar.o foo-objs := foo1.o foo2.o bar-objs := bar1.o bar2.o Without this patch, foo.o depends on all of foo1.o foo2.o bar1.o bar2.o. It looks funny that foo.o is regenerated when bar1.c is updated. Now we can handle the dependency of foo.o and bar.o separately.
