all: fix wildcard to work with make-4.x

In make-3.8x, the $(wildacrd) function would sort the entries,
while in make-4.x, it would just return the entries in any
unpredictable order [*]

Use the $(sort) function to get reproducible behaviour.

[*] Well, most probably the roder the entries appear when read
from readdir()

     1 Original patch from H.J. Lu, as reported there:

     3 
     4 fnstsw stores 16bit into %ax. The upper 16bit of %eax is unchanged.
     5 The new assembler (binutils-2.18.50.0.4 and up) will disallow "fnstsw %eax".
