Notes solely to the Kernel 2.5 part of your script:

1) You do not need any targets like all: or mmodules:
2) The clean: rule will not be used in 2.5, use clean-files instead.
3) No reason to special case on .ko or not. .ko will not harm on 2.4
4) I cannot see any reason to declare all OBJS as .PHONY
5) It looks like you try to enable the use of make in the directory
   where the module exists.
   This is an unusual extension, which will clutter up the makefile
   a bit.
   I would prefer a mmake script or similar that did the make -c ... trick.
