Running 'make nsdeps' in a clean source tree fails as follows:

make: *** [Makefile;1307: modules.order] Error 2
make: *** Deleting file 'modules.order'
make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

The cause of the error is 'make nsdeps' does not build modules at all.
Set KBUILD_MODULES to fix it.

You reported that issue earlier, but having nsdeps depend on modules
(see Makefile:1708) resolved that for me. I wonder what I missed. But I
won't disagree with you on kbuild advise. :-)
