Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: avoid rebuild of file2alias for each build

When introducing devicetable-offsets generation this
had the side-effect that file2alias (and thus modpost)
were build for each kernel build.

devicetable-offsets were introduced in 6543becf26fff612cdadeed7250ccc8d49f67f27
("mod/file2alias: make modalias generation safe for cross compiling")

"make V=2" said this was due to target not included in targets.
So add devicetable-offsets to targets.
