Linus,
Leonidas Spyropoulos found that modules like nouveau were being unselected
by make localmodconfig even though their configs were set and the module
was loaded and visible by lsmod. The reason for this was because
streamline-config.pl only looks at Makefiles, and not Kbuild files. As
these modules use Kbuild for their names, they too need to be checked
by localmodconfig. This was fixed by Richard Weinberger.

localmodconfig: Use Kbuild files too
In kbuild it is allowed to define objects in files named "Makefile"
and "Kbuild".
Currently localmodconfig reads objects only from "Makefile"s and misses
modules like nouveau.
