When building a tree of external modules stage 2 fails
silently as the root modules.order is empty.

Modify the modules.order location to be fixed to the
root when KBUILD_EXTMOD is specified and write all
module paths to the single modules.order file.

Could you try v5.3-rc4 please?

So it seems we are using 'subdir-m' but that is now gone?

Is there a recommend pattern for backward compatibility?

Thanks!

Please convert

subdir-m += dir1
subdir-m += dir2

into

obj-m += dir1/
obj-m += dir2/


Thanks.

After working through some local quirks everything is working now.
Thanks!
