ifeq ($(CONFIG_SUN_OPENPROMFS),m)
MOD_IN_SUB_DIRS += proc
MOD_TO_LIST += openpromfs.o
endif

These words MOD_IN_SUB_DIRS and MOD_TO_LIST don't appear anywhere else
in the entire kernel source distribution, including all the Makefiles.

What is the intent here?

This was part of the partial merge of the Sparc port, there is still
around 10% more to go and the hacks to the top level makefiles that
allow those constructs to work is part of that.
