it'll be a LOT easier for you to rewrite the Makefile such that you don't get .a files but a .o file similar to how the rest of kbuild operates.... while we do use .a files for linking into the vmlinux.. for modules it's probably not the best of ideas (and there's not really an advantage do doing so either anyway)
