'klibcdirs' was added by commit d39a206bc35d ("kbuild: rebuild initramfs
if content of initramfs changes"). If this is just a matter of forcing
execution of the recipe line, we can replace it with FORCE.
I do not understand the purpose of
$(deps_initramfs): klibcdirs
Remove it.

Perhaps, the 'klibcdirs' target might be intended
to control the directory descending
in case klibc is dropped in the kernel tree.
Anyway, klibc is built independently
of Linux kernel, and this 'klibcdirs' target
is just a no-op stub as far as the kernel tree is concerned.
Clean it up.

Yes, it is/was a hook for the klibc integration tree.
