When executing make -j4 on my UP machine kbuild failed.
The culprint was that compile.h were generated twice:
1) Due to the newly added dependency when building modules
2) When descending down into the directories
The generation of compile.h were placed in init/, presumeably
for historical reasons.
The following patch moves the generation of compile.h to the
top-level makefile, and list it in the prepare rule.
Hereby the generation of compile.h is done before descending down
in the the directories.
