kbuild: refactor modversions build rules
Let $(CC) compile objects into normal files *.o instead of .tmp_*.o whether CONFIG_MODVERSIONS is enabled or not. With this, the input file for objtool is always *.o so objtool_o can go away. I guess the reason of using .tmp_*.o for intermediate objects was to avoid leaving incomplete *.o file (, whose timestamp says it is up-to-date) when the genksyms tool failed for some reasons. It no longer matters because any targets are deleted on errors since commit 9c2af1c7 ("kbuild: add .DELETE_ON_ERROR special target"). Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
