Marek's first reply in the thread contains the solution: if you only need the KERNELRELEASE variable, then you do not need to depend on prepare. The main Makefile makes sure that silentoldconfig is ran and therefore KERNELRELEASE set for all targets except make *config. which seems to suggest that "prepare" is not needed for either target. -- FTTC broadband for 0.8mile line: currently at 9.5Mbps down 400kbps up according to speedtest.net. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
