modules.order may include both
drivers/of/of_mdio.ko and
drivers/net/mdio/of_mdio.c
But, I do not know how this could happen.
I checked out 14b26b127c098bba^,
and built modules with CONFIG_OF_MDIO=m.
Then, I checked out 14b26b127c098bba
and rebuilt.
I did not see such an error.
I also checked the Kbuild code,
and it looks good too.
Please let me know if you find steps
to reproduce it.
