The patch titled
headers_check: use a different default directory
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename is
headers_check-use-a-different-default-directory.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: headers_check: use a different default directory
From: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
`make headers_check' wants to go and write stuff in /lib/modules, which
requires root, whic is unfortunate.
In fact, there's no _particular_ reason for headers_install to put it there
either -- it can go into a subdirectory of the build tree in both cases.
It's not intended to go directly into /usr/include, which is why we didn't
put it there -- and we certainly don't want people screwing around with
symlinking to it. It's for distributors to take away and do stuff with, so
leaving it in $(objtree) is fine, even in the headers_install case.
I picked $(objtree)/usr/include but I have no _particular_ preference
for that; it just seemed reasonable.
