[U-Boot] ORIGEN: fix needed for out-of-tree build

Dear Chander, when building the "origen" board out-of-tree, it poollutes the source directory with a file board/samsung/origen/tools/mkorigenspl.exe which then never gets cleaned up.
Please fix your Makefile for out-of-tree building.
Side-note: Why is this file called ".exe"? Is this some MSDOS executable or what? Please consider also fixing the name.
Thanks.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk

No this is not MSDOS executable. This exe name depends upon the board configured. ".exe" is given so that it can match the "*.exe" while cleaning. I can make extension to .out. Please suggest if any better option
Thanks.

I see. Thanks.

No this is not MSDOS executable. This exe name depends upon the board configured. ".exe" is given so that it can match the "*.exe" while cleaning. I can make extension to .out. Please suggest if any better option
In Unix, we do not use any "extensions" at all for binaries.
Can you please drop this ".exe" stuff, and submit this as V2 of the above mentioned patch? Thanks.
