What is the purpose of REMOVE-DUP then?
If depmod handle duplicate entries there is no need to remove them.

And this change in Makefile.lib seems bogus:
+# make sure '/' follows subdirs
+subdir-y       := $(patsubst %//,%/, $(addsuffix, /,$subdir-y))
+subdir-m       := $(patsubst %//,%/, $(addsuffix, /,$subdir-m))

I commented it out and with my config everything seems to still
work as expected.
And I get scripts/mod/modpost built in a mrproper tree again (bug!).

subdir-y and subdir-m does not point to directories that
contains modules (built-in or not) so they can be ignored for modorder.


I did a quick hack up top of your patch and came up with the following.
I just checked that if I manually ran remove-dup then the resulting
module.order files were identical with a simple configuration (50 modules).

And I did not try out depmod at all.
Feel free to use this as an updated patch.
