Aha! Kernel build 2.4 expects all modules to be .c files, not .S. All
the .S -> .o rules are hard coded to add $(AFLAGS_KERNEL) which
includes -mconstant-gp. Fixing that will affect all architectures and
requires more kbuild surgery than I feel like doing right now.
Live with the restriction that 2.4 modules have to be .c files and
retain the inline asm format.
