    It is completely and utterly broken.  Module install should not build
    any files, and adding broken dependencies to "help" it build files is
    complete and utter sh*t.
    
    The kernel should not be built by root, and "make install" and "make
    module_install" (that for obvious reasons need to be run as root)
    absolutely must not build any files.  They should only ever copy the
    already-built files over.
    
    So having dependencies for the install targets is wrong, wrong, wrong.
    
    If you try to install a kernel without building it first, you *should*
    get errors. The build system shouldn't try to help root build the files.
