[PATCH] kbuild: Restore the ability to build out of tree dtbs

From: Chris Packham
Date: Tue Oct 15 2024 - 17:29:06 EST


A build pattern to handle out of tree dtbs is to copy the .dts file into
the kernel source tree and run `make myboard.dtb`. This is supported by
the wildcard %.dtb rule in the Makefile but recent changes to split the
dtb handling out of scripts/Makefile.build stopped this from working.
Restore this functionality by looking for the relevant file extensions
in $(MAKECMDGOALS) instead of $(targets).

Notes:
This seems to address the problem building out of tree dtbs. I think it
is correct because as far as I can tell nothing will pull .dtb and
friends into $(targets) and we explicity check for a non-empty $(dtb-y).
