If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 918708245e92941df16a634dc201b407d12bcd91 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Beulich <JBeulich@xxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 3 Apr 2013 15:47:33 +0100 Subject: x86: Fix rebuild with EFI_STUB enabled From: Jan Beulich <JBeulich@xxxxxxxx> commit 918708245e92941df16a634dc201b407d12bcd91 upstream. eboot.o and efi_stub_$(BITS).o didn't get added to "targets", and hence their .cmd files don't get included by the build machinery, leading to the files always getting rebuilt. Rather than adding the two files individually, take the opportunity and add $(VMLINUX_OBJS) to "targets" instead, thus allowing the assignment at the top of the file to be shrunk quite a bit. At the same time, remove a pointless flags override line - the variable assigned to was misspelled anyway, and the options added are meaningless for assembly sources. [ hpa: the patch is not minimal, but I am taking it for -urgent anyway since the excess impact of the patch seems to be small enough. ] Signed-off-by: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@xxxxxxxx> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/515C5D2502000078000CA6AD@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: Matthew Garrett <mjg@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: H.
