While I agree that the dots are ugly, I do not want to take this change
because it makes it harder to figure out how to build these .o files
individually. For example:
$ make -kj"$(nproc)" ARCH=x86_64 CROSS_COMPILE=x86_64-linux- mrproper
allmodconfig drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../amdkfd/kfd_module.o
...
CC [M] drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../amdkfd/kfd_module.o
works for building this file individually but the normalized path
produced by this patch
$ make -kj"$(nproc)" ARCH=x86_64 CROSS_COMPILE=x86_64-linux- mrproper
allmodconfig drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdkfd/kfd_module.o
...
CC drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdkfd/kfd_module.o
