Unlike modules.order, modules.builtin is not rebuilt every time. Once modules.builtin is created, it will not be updated until auto.conf or tristate.conf is changed. So, it misses to notice a change in Makefile, for example, renaming of modules. Kbuild must always descend into directories for modules.builtin too.
