Subject: kbuild: create the source symlink earlier in the objdir
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=929799973ba4a40f7b8001e9cc461c13d04c4124;p=linux-beck.git

kbuild: create the source symlink earlier in the objdir

It's useful to already have the source symlink in a
objdir when one just runs make *config. Then one
can do

mkdir obj-allyes
cd obj-allyes
make -C ../sourcedir O=$(pwd) allyesconfig
./source/scripts/config --disable debug_info
make CC=icecc -j18

without having to interrupt the make first just to
get the source symlink.
