linux-next: kbuild-current build failure

Hi Sam,

Today's linux-next build (powerpc ppc64_deconfig) failed like this:

LD vmlinux.o
/scratch/sfr/next/scripts/Makefile.modpost:44: scripts/Kbuild.include: No such file or directory
/scratch/sfr/next/scripts/Makefile.modpost:58: scripts/Makefile.lib: No such file or directory
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `scripts/Makefile.lib'. Stop.
make[1]: *** [vmlinux] Error 2
make: *** [sub-make] Error 2

This is Linus' tree with just the net-current, arm-current and
kbuild-current trees merged i.e. just bug fixes queued for Linus' current
tree. The build was done with "O=../powerpc_ppc64_defconfig -j24 -s"
i.e. separate object tree and parallel.

Reverting commit 68e9b79c8dad5245f28ab4f3527481b730dbdb61 ("kbuild:
simplify vmlinux link stage") makes the build work again.
