If the expression (from fs/Makefile)

subdir-$(CONFIG_NLS) += nls

evaluates to

subdir-y += nls

and mod-subdirs contains "nls"

both-m := $(filter $(mod-subdirs), $(subdir-y))

SUB_DIRS := $(subdir-y)
MOD_SUB_DIRS := $(sort $(subdir-m) $(both-m))

will add nls to both SUB_DIRS and MOD_SUB_DIRS.

The two examples just don't belong together.
