This is a prerequisite for the following: https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/1059150/ https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/1059149/ If this patch lands in upstream, I will resend them. The motivation of the two is to avoid unneeded re-compilation of kernel/kheaders_data.tar.xz This is a race condition between scripts/gen_kheaders.sh and arch/arm/mach-{at91,omap2}/Makefile -- Best Regards Masahiro Yamada
