[PATCH] Makefile: remove *.spec from clean target

From: Todd Zullinger <hidden>
Date: 2018-02-17 03:06:32
Subsystem: kernel build + files below scripts/ (unless maintained elsewhere), the rest · Maintainers: Nathan Chancellor, Nicolas Schier, Linus Torvalds

Support for generating an rpm was dropped in ab214331cf ("Makefile: stop
pretending to support rpmbuild", 2016-04-04).  We don't generate any
*.spec files so there is no need to clean them up.

I noticed this minor cruft today.  Since we don't generate a
spec file, this is at best unneeded.  At worst we could
wrongly delete a users spec file if they happened to be
working on it in their git clone and called make clean.
