The dependency
$(obj)/%.mod: $(obj)/%$(mod-prelink-ext).o
... exists because *.mod files previously contained undefined symbols,
which are computed from *.o files when CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS=y.
Now that the undefined symbols are put into separate *.usyms files,
there is no reason to make *.mod depend on *.o files.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
