The patch titled
     Subject: Makefile: fix build with make 3.80 again
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     makefile-fix-build-with-make-380-again.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
From: "Jan Beulich" <JBeulich@xxxxxxxx>
Subject: Makefile: fix build with make 3.80 again

According to Documentation/Changes, make 3.80 is still being supported for
building the kernel, hence make files must not make (unconditional) use of
features introduced only in newer versions.  Commit 8779657d
("stackprotector: Introduce CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG") however
introduced an "else ifdef" construct which make 3.80 doesn't understand.

Also correct a warning message still referencing the old config option
name.

Apart from that I question the use of "ifdef" here (but it was used that
way already prior to said commit): ifeq (,y) would seem more to the point.
