the same name of external kernel module as one of source file

Hi

If I have something like this in makefile:

obj-m := reset-core.o
reset-core-y := reset-core-main.o reset-core-utils.o

then module is built OK.

If I have something like that:

 obj-m := reset-core.o
reset-core-y := reset-core.o reset-core-utils.o  

then it is wrongly built.

So I will replace all source file characters '-' to '_' and I will have:

obj-m := reset-core.o
reset-core-y := reset_core.o reset_core_utils.o   

and everything will be OK, but it is a bit frustrating that code rules me instead of me rules code. Maybe there is another solution?
