[bug #33034] "Makefile:23: *** mixed implicit and normal rules. Stop." for Linux kernel out of source builds

[Josh Triplett]

Follow-up Comment #10, bug #33034 (project make):

>  Yes, formally it's not, but really, what's the chance a trivial one-line
change to the top-level makefile will actually break your driver? :) 

It's actually several non-trivial multi-line changes to various makefiles in
the Linux source tree.  Look through the kernel's git history for "3.82" and
you'll find several commits worth of makefile changes working around the
"mixed implicit and normal rules" regression.

And in any case, having to apply any patches while digging back in the source
tree is painful.
