As you seem to have discovered, this is just because your
build tree has stale files in it:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2015-02/msg02607.html
It's one of those things where we made a change to our makefiles
(in fact a change from over a year ago, I think), and the new
dependency rules are self-consistent but don't provide an
"upgrade" path for ensuring correct files are generated
starting from a pre-change build tree state.

As far as I can tell, once you've caused the make_device_config.sh
script to get run once, the .d files will all be present so that
future changes like this aarch64 one to pci.mak or other included
files will correctly trigger rebuilds.
