From: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit f566e1fbadb686e28f1c307e356114b2865ef588 ] Currently, the single-target build does not work when two or more sub-directories are given: $ make fs/ kernel/ lib/ CALL scripts/checksyscalls.sh CALL scripts/atomic/check-atomics.sh DESCEND objtool make[2]: Nothing to be done for 'kernel/'. make[2]: Nothing to be done for 'fs/'. make[2]: Nothing to be done for 'lib/'.
