[PATCH] kbuild: mark "FORCE" target as secondary

[Arnd Bergmann <arnd@kernel.org>]

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

Starting with make-4.4.1, Kbuild uses the special .NOTINTERMEDIATE
target to mark all targets as not intermediate, which slightly changes
the behavior compared to older versions of make.

This causes a build regression with my change to the system call table
scripts now in scripts/Makefile.asm-headers, forcing a rebuild of the
generated files with every make invocation and effectively breaking
incremental builds.

I have narrowed down the change in behavior to the way that the
'FORCE' target is treated: If this is marked as not intermediate,
the $(if_changed) macro always evaluates it as a missing prerequisite,
but if it is marked as .SECONDARY, it works like before.

----
I'm still a bit confused by the way this works in detail, hopefully
Masahiro Yamada can either confirm that this is a correct fix or provide
a better one.
