Masahiro Yamada 344b658047 arm64: fix unnecessary rebuilding when CONFIG_DEBUG_EFI=y
When CONFIG_DEBUG_EFI is enabled, some objects are needlessly rebuilt.

[Steps to reproduce]

  Enable CONFIG_DEBUG_EFI and run 'make' twice in a clean source tree.
  On the second run, arch/arm64/kernel/head.o is rebuilt even though
  no files have changed.

  $ make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- clean
  $ make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu-
     [ snip ]
  $ make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu-
    CALL    scripts/checksyscalls.sh
    AS      arch/arm64/kernel/head.o
    AR      arch/arm64/kernel/built-in.a
    AR      arch/arm64/built-in.a
    AR      built-in.a
     [ snip ]

The issue is caused by the use of the $(realpath ...) function.

At the time arch/arm64/kernel/Makefile is parsed on the first run,
$(objtree)/vmlinux does not exist. As a result,
$(realpath $(objtree)/vmlinux) expands to an empty string.

On the second run of Make, $(objtree)/vmlinux already exists, so
$(realpath $(objtree)/vmlinux) expands to the absolute path of vmlinux.
However, this change in the command line causes arch/arm64/kernel/head.o
to be rebuilt.

To address this issue, use $(abspath ...) instead, which does not require
the file to exist. While $(abspath ...) does not resolve symlinks, this
should be fine from a debugging perspective.

The GNU Make manual [1] clearly explains the difference between the two:

  $(realpath names...)
    For each file name in names return the canonical absolute name.
    A canonical name does not contain any . or .. components, nor any
    repeated path separators (/) or symlinks. In case of a failure the
    empty string is returned. Consult the realpath(3) documentation for
    a list of possible failure causes.

  $(abspath namees...)
    For each file name in names return an absolute name that does not
    contain any . or .. components, nor any repeated path separators (/).
    Note that, in contrast to realpath function, abspath does not resolve
    symlinks and does not require the file names to refer to an existing
    file or directory. Use the wildcard function to test for existence.

The same problem exists in drivers/firmware/efi/libstub/Makefile.zboot.
On the first run of Make, $(obj)/vmlinuz.efi.elf does not exist when the
Makefile is parsed, so -DZBOOT_EFI_PATH is set to an empty string.
Replace $(realpath ...) with $(abspath ...) there as well.
