Oh well, thanks for the explanation.
Alex, how do we proceed now? I like 2) + comment as in
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/misc/ocxl/Makefile?h=v4.20#n8
better than 3) as relative paths make it dependable on what file
actually includes it and it is not clear what is that and what happens
if that file moves deeper in the tree (unlikely to happen though).
