-       'make dep' is a synonym for the long form, 'make depend'.

-       This command does two things.  First, it computes dependency
-       information about which .o files depend on which .h files.
-       It records this information in a top-level file named .hdepend
-       and in one file per source directory named .depend.

-       Second, if you have CONFIG_MODVERSIONS enabled, 'make dep'
-       computes symbol version information for all of the files that
-       export symbols (note that both resident and modular files may
-       export symbols).

-       If you do not enable CONFIG_MODVERSIONS, you only have to run
-       'make dep' once, right after the first time you configure
-       the kernel.  The .hdepend files and the .depend file are
-       independent of your configuration.
-
-       If you do enable CONFIG_MODVERSIONS, you must run 'make dep'
-       every time you change your configuration, because the module
-       symbol version information depends on the configuration.
