Since commit c8589d1e9e01 ("kbuild: handle multi-objs dependency
appropriately"), $^ really represents all the prerequisite of the
composite object being built.
Hence, $(filter %.o,$^) contains all the objects to link together,
which is much simpler than link_multi_deps calculation.
Please note $(filter-out FORCE,$^) does not work here. When a
single object module is turned into a multi object module, $^ will
contain header files that were previously included for building the
single object, and recorded in the .*.cmd file. $(filter %.o,$^)
should be used to filter out such headers.
