Another approach would be to move more of the build stuff to
one or a few build scripts.
Using build scripts makes is much easier to add comments and
still keep it readable.
And when the build logic list a set of serialized actions
they thay can be included in a build script nicely.
But that said - I also like the simplifications you made.
Everytime you trim the core kbuild files it is a win for
readability.
