The warning has been around with W=1 for over a year now, it still
shows up here:
make ARCH=arm64 allmodconfig drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/octeontx2/ -skj20
scripts/Makefile.build:236: drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/octeontx2/nic/Makefile: otx2_devlink.o is added to multiple modules: rvu_nicpf rvu_nicvf
scripts/Makefile.build:236: drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/octeontx2/nic/Makefile: otx2_dcbnl.o is added to multiple modules: rvu_nicpf rvu_nicvf
