As far as I can see, the conflict resolution is correct.

Testing your branch now. No failure so far.

I did notice spurious error messages after cleaning my build tree.  
They're unrelated to your failure case though. Regardless, here's a

From: Nicolas Pitre <[e-mail]>
Subject: kbuild: don't complain about existing if_changed_dep targets

There are more if_changed_dep cases for which we know there is no
ksyms to parse. Add them to the list.

Also add a full stop to the comment.
