Some firmware images contain a comma, such as:
EXTRA_FIRMWARE "brcm/brcmfmac4334-sdio.samsung,gt-s7710.txt"
as Broadcom firmware simply tags the device tree compatible
string at the end of the firmware parameter file. And the
compatible string contains a comma.
This doesn't play well with gas:
drivers/base/firmware_loader/builtin/brcm/brcmfmac4334-sdio.samsung,gt-s7710.txt.gen.S: Assembler messages:
drivers/base/firmware_loader/builtin/brcm/brcmfmac4334-sdio.samsung,gt-s7710.txt.gen.S:4: Error: bad instruction `_fw_brcm_brcmfmac4334_sdio_samsung,gt_s7710_txt_bin:'

make[6]: *** [../scripts/Makefile.build:357: drivers/base/firmware_loader/builtin/brcm/brcmfmac4334-sdio.samsung,gt-s7710.txt.gen.o] Error 1
We need to get rid of the comma from the labels used by the
assembly stub generator.
Replacing a comma using GNU Make subst requires a helper
variable.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
