Now that we only have a single repo, the first argument to
IncludeCustomExtension is no longer needed.
I looked at some more ambitious ways to simplify IncludeCustomExtension.
Getting make to automatically retrieve the name of the file is just
sooooo tantalizingly close to possible, but ultimately not doable. :-(
One way to achieve this (and also get automatic hooks for custom
extensions prior and after including a file) would be to replace all
places now sporting "include $FILE" with a "$(eval $(call include,
$FILE))". This would also help somewhat with debuggability, by providing
means from the code, e.g. in error messages, to know the name of the
current file, and showing the include tree in e.g. LOG=debug.
However, in the end, I decided it was not really worth it. We have 200+
includes that needed changing, and then we would need to remember to use
this pattern for all new future changes.
