kbuild: Fix running modpost with musl libc
commit 3d57e1b7b1d4 ("kbuild: refactor the prerequisites of the modpost
rule") moved 'vmlinux.o' inside modpost-args, possibly before some of
the other options. However, getopt() in musl libc follows POSIX and
stops looking for options upon reaching the first non-option argument.
As a result, the '-T' option is misinterpreted as a positional argument,
and the build fails:
make -f ./scripts/Makefile.modpost
scripts/mod/modpost -E -o Module.symvers vmlinux.o -T modules.order
-T: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [scripts/Makefile.modpost:137: Module.symvers] Error 1
make: *** [Makefile:1960: modpost] Error 2
The fix is to move all options before 'vmlinux.o' in modpost-args.
