[PATCH] 2.6.24-rc5: Fix build with make O= if the top level Makefile is not present

From: Rafael J. Wysocki
Date: Sun Dec 16 2007 - 16:31:26 EST


Hi,

IMHO, something like the patch below is needed to fix builds with "make O=",
since after commit 18c32dac75b187d1a4e858f3cfdf03e844129f5e
"kbuild: fix building with O=.. options" the top-level Makefile is no longer
created automatically if it's not present at all.

Thanks,
Rafael

Make the build system create the top-level Makefile for builds with "make O="
if it is not present already.
