Hello Michal and kbuild team, I think I've spotted an error in the module KBuild / Makefile documentation. I believe that the first condition should be executed only if KERNELRELEASE is unset, and the rest should be executed unconditionally. Let me know if I'm misreading it. This patch is Copyright 2016 The Linux Foundation. Cheers, C.J. Collier Release Engineer
