Up to now, we generated module versions for all objects which were listed in $(export-objs). This had one advantage: A changed .config will not affect which .ver files are built, thus saving recompiles. However, it is fundamentally broken. To build .ver files, we preprocess the exporting sources - and the result can obviously depend on the current .config. Even worse, some files generate errors when preprocessed with the wrong .config - it doesn't matter a lot that drivers/sbus/* will generate errors on x86, since it won't be used anyway, but e.g. kernel/suspend.c cannot be preprocessed unless CONFIG_SOFTWARE_SUSPEND is set. - Up to now, we just silently ignore these errors. Actually, the whole point behind CONFIG_MODVERSIONS is to make sure we don't insert modules into a kernel which was configured differently, and as such the generation of symbols can only work when .config is known. So we now only generate symbols for objects which will actually be compiled - which means less work, and enforce the kernel to be configured before "make dep".
