Will do. Sorry for forgetting it.

We should guarantee that the include/generated/struct_page_size.h
which Kconfig depends on is created before processing Makefile
since processing Kconfig is before Makefile. Right?

You are right. include/generated/struct_page_size.h does not exist
in this case, CONFIG_STRUCT_PAGE_SIZE_IS_POWER_OF_2
will be default off in .config. Then it will be switched on/off accordingly
when you build the kernel, for instance make bzImage, which is done via
"make syncconfig" which follows the generation of struct_page_size.h.

While testing this case, I found some bugs. The following patch
could fix this.  Thanks.
