Oh, pants. Sorry, I renamed the CONFIG_BUILTIN_FIRMWARE option to
CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE some time back, but all my own test builds had the
include/config/builtin/firmware/dir.h file still lying around so I
didn't notice that I'd forgotten to change that manual dependency. And
evidently nobody using linux-next actually tried to include arbitrary
_other_ firmware into their tree. This patch should fix it...

(Why _do_ we have stray files left in include/config/ when config
options go away, btw? Shouldn't they get deleted?)

Subject: firmware: Correct dependency on CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR

When CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR gets changed, the filename in the .S file
(which uses .incbin to include the binary) needs to change. When we
renamed the BUILTIN_FIRMWARE_DIR option to EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR, we forgot
to update the manual dependency in firmware/Makefile, so it was
depending on a non-existent file in include/config/
