Oops, no, it breaks the build:

make[2]: *** No rule to make target 'arch/x86/kernel/cpuinfo.o', needed by 'arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o'.  Stop.
make[1]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:561: arch/x86/kernel] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:1019: arch/x86] Error 2

You did test this, right?

Please fix and resend...
