Subject: [PATCH] platform/x86: dell: Use *-y instead of *-objs in Makefile

The `objs` suffix is reserved for user-space tools. Use the `y` suffix
instead, which is usually used for kernel drivers.

Hi all,

I based this patch on top of the for-next branch.

Ilpo, if you prefer this patch to be based on top of the fixes branch,
let me know. I'd submit two separate patches, one for alienware-wmi, on
top of the for-next branch and one for the other drivers, on top of
fixes.
