I do not think it makes the code easier.


A tricky case is that multiple targets run in parallel.


"make  -j$(nproc)  dtbs_check  dt_binding_examples"


Two different threads dive into Documentation/devicetree/bindings/Makefile,
and try to build the same file simultaneously.

If you run the command above, you will see two lines of

  SCHEMA  Documentation/devicetree/bindings/processed-schema.json

processed-schema.json may result in a corrupted file.

I still do not understand why so many phony targets are necessary.

Why isn't the change as simple as the attached file?
