Others might though for whatever reason. There are a couple other places in the tree that also use subdir-ccflags where the results of making a subdirectory would either fail or have unexpected results. Does it matter? Not much, but it could be nicer if it's possible for parent Makefile paths to be ascended. I'm not much of a Makefile person, but perhaps you have some clues/tips/suggestions for implementation? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kbuild" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
