Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: allow multi-word $M in Makefile.modpost
Date: Tue, 10 Oct 2006 11:59:02 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20061010015902.GZ28796@sgi.com> (raw)

Some people want to do crazy things like pass multiple directories
as the value of $(SUBDIRS) or $M.  Mostly this kinda works, except
that Makefile.modpost constructs a modpost commandline which fails
modpost's argument parsing.  This patch fixes that little wrinkle.
