Applied to linux-kbuild. Thanks.


I added a little more explanation about why this patch is needed.

[masahiro:
The following Debian policy is particularly important for rootless builds:
"Both binary-* targets should depend on the build target, or on the
appropriate build-arch or build-indep target, so that the package is
built if it has not been already."
