Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: add dtbs_prepare target
Date: Sat, 16 Jul 2022 18:31:22 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220716093122.137494-1-masahiroy@kernel.org> (raw)

Factor out the common prerequisites for DT compilation into the new
target, dtbs_prepare.

Add comments in case you wonder why include/config/kernel.release is
the prerequisite. Our policy is that installation targets must not
(re)compile any build artifacts in the tree. If we make modules_install
depend on include/config/kernel.release and it is executed under the
root privilege, it may be owned by root.
