This should be taken care of by linux-kbuild (and me).
For your specific problem, please fix netronome/nfp/Makefile
I'd like to take my time to think about this patch.
The single target is a bit compromised implementation
(it cannot handle subdir-ccflags-y correctly, for example)
I wonder if we should do this just for single target...
