Coreinfo and geode conflict in buildrom

[Myles Watson]

I couldn't build a coreinfo payload for the db800 because they both
try to set DEPENDS-y.  Is there a strong ordering (which should set it
and which should add to the list), or should we make a new DEPENDS-y
for the platform?

Thanks,
Myles

Hmmm - they should both use a +=.  DEPENDS-y should be empty by default,
but if we don't want to depend on make doing the right thing, we can
do a DEPENDS-y= before we start including files.

There shouldn't be any strong ordering in the DEPENDS-y code in general,
if there is, thats a bug.

Fixed in Rev 200.

We do that in Makefile.
