[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] rules: filter out irrelevant files

[Michael S. Tsirkin]

It's often handy to make executables depend on each other, e.g. make a
test depend on a helper. This doesn't work now, as linker
will attempt to use the helper as an object.
To fix, filter only relevant file types before linking an executable.
