2.4.19-pre6 dead Makefile entries

The more rigorous error checking in kbuild 2.5 found several Makefile
entries for objects that have no source. kbuild 2.4 silently ignores
objects that it cannot build, allowing errors to sneak through.

These are typing errors or they are dead entries. In either case they
need to be cleaned up, by removing the entry from the Makefile or by
supplying the missing source. After removing the entries, also verify
if the CONFIG_ entry is still required and remove that as well if it is
obsolete.
