Now that this line is doing a non-trivial task,
it might be a good idea to show a short log, like this:
GEN include/generated/autoksyms.h
You can do it like this:
quiet_cmd_autoksyms_h = GEN $@
cmd_autoksyms_h = mkdir -p $(dir $@); $(BASH)
$(srctree)/scripts/gen_autoksyms.sh $@
$(autoksyms_h):
$(call cmd,autoksyms_h)
