In general, kbuild wants to find a source file with the same name as the object file. That you can't change. It also expects to build object files in the same directory as their source files. This is why I suggested a special directory where you symlink all the required sources for a kernel build, then let kbuild do the rest. To sum up - pick the names you want for the files in a kernel build. Set them in mymodule-objs. Then if those names are different than your actual source file, come up with a rule to change the name.
