When specifying a generic defconfig target with O=... option set, make is invoked in the output location before a target makefile wrapper is created. Ensure that the correct makefile is used by specifying the kernel source makefile during make invocation. This fixes the either of the following errors: $ make sead3_defoncifg ARCH=mips O=test make[1]: Entering directory '/mnt/ssd/MIPS/linux-next/test' make[2]: *** No rule to make target '32r2el_defconfig'.
