I am not convinced with this statement.

Why do you think 63a91033d52e is a bad commit?


With/without 63a91033d52e, I see the same warnings.


$ git log --oneline  -1
63a9103 kbuild: add generic mergeconfig target, %.config
$ make -s mrproper
$ make tinyconfig >/dev/null
.config:871:warning: override: KERNEL_XZ changes choice state
.config:873:warning: override: SLOB changes choice state
.config:874:warning: override: NOHIGHMEM changes choice state
$ git checkout HEAD^
Previous HEAD position was 63a9103... kbuild: add generic mergeconfig
target, %.config
HEAD is now at bc8f8f5... merge_config.sh: rename MAKE to RUNMAKE
$ git log --oneline  -1

The dependency "tinyconfig: $(obj)/conf" is redundant.


It is already specified by:

allnoconfig allyesconfig allmodconfig alldefconfig randconfig: $(obj)/conf
         $< --$@ $(Kconfig)







What is worse, this patch breaks "make tinyconfig" on x86.
