ARC: [kbuild] Avoid DTB rebuilds if DTS are untouched
Currently, for every ARC kernel build I see the following:
--------------->8-----------------
DTB arch/arc/boot/dts/angel4.dtb.S
AS arch/arc/boot/dts/angel4.dtb.o
LD arch/arc/boot/dts/built-in.o
rm arch/arc/boot/dts/angel4.dtb.S <-- forces rebuild next iter
CHK kernel/config_data.h
--------------->8-----------------
This is because *.dts.S is intermediate file in dtb generation and is by
default deleted by make which needs a ".SECONDARY" hint to NOT do so.
This could have ideally been done in scripts/Makefile.lib - for benefit
of all, however .SECONDARY doesn't seem to work with wildcards.
Thanks to Stephen for suggesting .SECONDARY (vs .PRECIOUS) and making
that work using a non wildcard version in arch makefile.
Thanks to James Hogan for pointing out that *.dtb.S now needs to be
added to clean-files
