Running "make" on an already compiled kernel tree will rebuild the
kernel even without any modifications:
CALL linux/scripts/checksyscalls.sh
CALL linux/scripts/atomic/check-atomics.sh
CHK include/generated/compile.h
SO2S arch/riscv/kernel/vdso/vdso-syms.S
AS arch/riscv/kernel/vdso/vdso-syms.o
AR arch/riscv/kernel/vdso/built-in.a
AR arch/riscv/kernel/built-in.a
AR arch/riscv/built-in.a
GEN .version
CHK include/generated/compile.h
UPD include/generated/compile.h
CC init/version.o
AR init/built-in.a
LD vmlinux.o
The reason is "Any target that utilizes if_changed must be listed in
$(targets), otherwise the command line check will fail, and the target
will always be built" as explained by Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.rst
Fix this build bug by adding vdso-syms.S to $(targets)
At the same time, there are two trivial clean up modifications:
- the vdso-dummy.o is not needed any more after so remove it.
- vdso.lds is a generated file, so it should be prefixed with
$(obj)/ instead of $(src)/

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
