From 2dd34b488a99135ad2a529e33087ddd6a09e992a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Russell King Date: Sun, 30 Oct 2005 22:42:11 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] kbuild: permanently fix kernel configuration include mess Include autoconf.h into every kernel compilation via the gcc command line using -imacros. This ensures that we have the kernel configuration included from the start, rather than relying on each file having #include as appropriate. History has shown that this is something which is difficult to get right. Since we now include the kernel configuration automatically, make configcheck becomes meaningless, so remove it.
