make dep fails on 2.5.22

The problem is in drivers/scsi because of the auto generated header files for
certain scsi scripts.

It currently errors out for me with my NCR_D700 controller because 53c700.c
requires 53c700_d.h which is an automatically generated header file and thus
doesn't exist when make dep is run.

I can fix this by adding the rule:

$(MODVERDIR)/53c700.ver: 53c700_d.h

but this looks wrong. The dependency is already listed in the existing rule:

53c700.o: 53c700_d.h

Is there any way we can cause make deps to see dynamically generated header
files, which will globally fix the problem? Otherwise, perhaps just adding an
extra variable into the Makefile to tell make dep about the necessary dynamic
headers would be in order?
