The -objs syntax is deprecated these days.
Preferred syntax for the above is:

ifdef CONFIG_TILEGX
tile_net-y := tilegx.o mpipe.o iorpc_mpipe.o dma_queue.o
else
tile_net-y := tilepro.o
endif

We could make this even shorter like this (assuming TILEGX is a bool):
tile_net-y := tilepro.o
tile_net-$(CONFIG_TILEGX) := tilegx.o mpipe.o iorpc_mpipe.o dma_queue.o

But this is less readable - so the longer version is better.
