kbuild: do not deduplicate modules.order
The AWK code was added to deduplicate modules.order in case $(obj-m) contains the same module multiple times, but it is actually unneeded since commit b2c885549122 ("kbuild: update modules.order only when contained modules are updated"). The list is already deduplicated before being processed by AWK because $^ is the deduplicated list of prerequisites. (Please note the real-prereqs macro uses $^) Yet, modules.order will contain duplication if two different Makefiles build the same module: foo/Makefile: obj-m += bar/baz.o foo/bar/Makefile: obj-m += baz.o However, the parallel builds cannot properly handle this case in the first place. So, it is better to let it fail (as already done by scripts/modules-check.sh). Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>
