*-objs suffix is reserved rather for (user-space) host programs while
usually *-y suffix is used for kernel drivers (although *-objs works
for that purpose for now).

Let's correct the old usages of *-objs in Makefiles.

Note, the original approach is weirdest from existing. Only a few
drivers use this (-objs-y) one most likely by mistake.

I haven't examined the claim in detail but I trust you so:
