[Regression] depmod fails on kernel 6.17.1 rc1

[Alex Davis]

When running make modules_install on linux 6.17. with the attached
.config, I get the following error:

  DEPMOD  /lib/modules/6.17.1-rc1
depmod: ERROR: Cycle detected: 8250 -> 8250_base -> 8250
depmod: ERROR: Cycle detected: serial_mctrl_gpio
depmod: ERROR: Found 2 modules in dependency cycles!
make[2]: *** [scripts/Makefile.modinst:132: depmod] Error 1
make[1]: *** [/spare/linux/linux-6.17/Makefile:1917: modules_install] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:248: __sub-make] Error 2


This also happens with 6.17; it does not happen with 6.16.x.
