kbuild: rpm-pkg: fix build error with CONFIG_MODULES=n
[ Upstream commit 8d1001f7bdd0553a796998f4fff07ee13e1c1cad ]
When CONFIG_MODULES is disabled, 'make (bin)rpm-pkg' fails:
$ make allnoconfig binrpm-pkg
[ snip ]
error: File not found: .../linux/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/kernel-6.10.0_rc3-1.i386/lib/modules/6.10.0-rc3/kernel
error: File not found: .../linux/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/kernel-6.10.0_rc3-1.i386/lib/modules/6.10.0-rc3/modules.order
To make it work irrespective of CONFIG_MODULES, this commit specifies
the directory path, /lib/modules/%{KERNELRELEASE}, instead of individual
files.
However, doing so would cause new warnings:
warning: File listed twice: /lib/modules/6.10.0-rc3-dirty/modules.alias

warning: File listed twice: /lib/modules/6.10.0-rc3-dirty/modules.symbols
warning: File listed twice: /lib/modules/6.10.0-rc3-dirty/modules.symbols.bin
These files exist in /lib/modules/%{KERNELRELEASE} and are also explicitly
marked as %ghost.
Suppress depmod because depmod-generated files are not packaged.
