{build fail} firmware: latest Linus tree modules_install fail

[Wang Chen]

make[1]: *** No rule to make target `/lib/firmware/$(dir', needed by `/lib/firmware/ttusb-budget/dspbootcode.bin'.  Stop.
make: *** [_modinst_post] Error 2

This error was outputed when I build the latest git tree of Linus's linux-2.6.
