So "make distclean" still doesn't actually clean everything.
I don't personally much care, since I've taught my fingers to just do
git clean -dqfx
instead, but since I tested "make distclean" after pulling from you, I
thought I'd just mention it.
Just do
make allmodconfig
.. build the tree ..
make distclean
git ls-files -o
to see any files that are left-over despite the distclean ("git
ls-files -o" basically shows all untracked files - 'o' stands for
'others' - so anything that isn't in the actual distributed sources
shows up)
But I really am not sure how much effort we should spend on "make
distclean", given than "git clean" is so much easier and requires no
effort at all.
