kbuild: create object directories simpler and faster
For the out-of-tree build, scripts/Makefile.build creates output
directories, but this operation is not efficient.
scripts/Makefile.lib calculates obj-dirs as follows:
obj-dirs := $(dir $(multi-objs) $(obj-y))
Please notice $(sort ...) is not used here. Usually the result is
as many "./" as objects here.
For a lot of duplicated paths, the following command is invoked.
_dummy := $(foreach d,$(obj-dirs), $(shell [ -d $(d) ] || mkdir -p $(d)))
Then, the costly shell command is run over and over again.
I see many points for optimization:
[1] Use $(sort ...) to cut down duplicated paths before passing them
to system call
[2] Use single $(shell ...) instead of repeating it with $(foreach ...)
This will reduce forking.
[3] We can calculate obj-dirs more simply. Most of objects are already
accumulated in $(targets). So, $(dir $(targets)) is fine and more
comprehensive.
I also removed ugly code in arch/x86/entry/vdso/Makefile. This is now
really unnecessary.
