Subject: [PATCH] riscv: vdso: fix and clean-up Makefile

From: Jisheng Zhang <[email protected]>

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)/

Fixes: c2c81bb2f691 ("RISC-V: Fix the VDSO symbol generaton for binutils-2.35+")

Thanks, this is on for-next.
