No, I do not think so.

Your code is wrong.


To clarify this is a fix,
I will replace the commit as follows:




------------------->8----------------------
kbuild: detect btf command change for modules

Currently, the command change in cmd_btf_ko does not cause to rebuild
the modules because it is not passed to if_changed.

Pass everything to if_change so that the btf command is also recorded
in the .*.cmd files. This removes the hacky newer_prereqs_except and
if_changed_except macros too.
------------------->8----------------------
