kbuild: remove dependency on compile.h
We had a dummy dependency on include/linux/compile.h, but it really caused more trouble than benefits. It's not actually needed for the module postprocessing, it was only put there to make sure we recognize when gcc changed under us. However, we really can only do so much, and the rest of kbuild won't notice a changed gcc either, so if the user replaces gcc during a build, he just can't rely on the build doing the right thing. The common cases are still covered, anyway. When the command to invoke gcc changes ("CC=gcc32") we notice, and when the path to /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/2.96/include/stdarg.h changes (which luckily contains the "2.96", we'll notice and handle that, too.
