No issue on "make clean".

I did same modification as you did, for me comma defined for both times,
a system variable can be triggering the behavior perhaps.

What I got with "make clean" is:

...
== Clean lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/kni
------------
comma=,
file
make -C /lib/modules/4.4.0-22-generic/build
M=/home/ferruhy/development/dpdk/build/build/lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/kni
O=/lib/modules/4.4.0-22-generic/build clean
make -C /usr/src/linux-headers-4.4.0-22-generic
KBUILD_SRC=/usr/src/linux-headers-4.4.0-22-generic \
-f /usr/src/linux-headers-4.4.0-22-generic/Makefile clean
make -f /usr/src/linux-headers-4.4.0-22-generic/scripts/Makefile.clean
obj=/home/ferruhy/development/dpdk/build/build/lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/kni
------------
comma=,
file
  rm -rf
/home/ferruhy/development/dpdk/build/build/lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/kni/.tmp_versions
  rm -f
