Revert "Makefile: Fix install error with make -j option"

This reverts commit d2aae84. It is completely and utterly broken. Module install should not build any files, and adding broken dependencies to "help" it build files is complete and utter sh*t. The kernel should not be built by root, and "make install" and "make module_install" (that for obvious reasons need to be run as root) absolutely must not build any files. They should only ever copy the already-built files over. So having dependencies for the install targets is wrong, wrong, wrong. If you try to install a kernel without building it first, you *should* get errors. The build system shouldn't try to help root build the files. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]>
