From: Randy Dunlap <rdun...@infradead.org>
If there is no System.map file for "make modules_install",
scripts/depmod.sh will silently exit with success, having done
nothing. Since this is an unexpected situation, change it to
report a Warning for the missing file. The behavior is not
changed except for the Warning message.
The (previous) silent success and new Warning can be reproduced
by:
$ make mrproper; make defconfig
$ make modules; make modules_install
and since System.map is produced by "make vmlinux", the steps
above omit producing the System.map file.
