.*.cmd files were introduced by Kbuild at v2014.04-rc1
and correctly ignored.
v2013.01.01 you are using has nothing to do with Kbuild.

I guess you built at u-boot/master (.*.cmd files were generated)
and then you checked out v2013.01.01.

And one more thing.
Your patch is not applicable at all.
Please do not post a patch based on such an old tag.
