Commit 5180d5f4 ("firmware: Simplify directory creation") broke including firmware specified in CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE: MK_FW firmware/amd-ucode/microcode_amd.bin.gen.S /bin/sh: firmware/amd-ucode/microcode_amd.bin.gen.S: No such file or directory ... firmware/Makefile:185: recipe for target 'firmware/amd-ucode/microcode_amd.bin.gen.S' failed It works with O= builds, because the directory is created by Makefile.build. Create the directory in firmware/Makefile in non-O builds.
