We've not see any on the yocto project autobuilders and I've not heard reports of this from anyone else. I've cc'd Bruce in case he's aware of anything and can chime in but the new code is being used in many places, including with 3.10 kernels and I've not heard reports. The fact the kernel.release is being recreated suggests something in the configuration is changing (different environment or commandline options?) or that there is a problem in your kernel to do with the Makefiles and the dependencies of the kernel.release file. You might reach a wider audience with questions like this on the yocto or openembedded-core mailing lists btw, poky tends to be fairly quiet these days although many of us are here too :) Cheers, Richard
