[PATCH] kbuild: Create .tmp_versions when building external modules

From: Sam Ravnborg
Date: Tue Apr 13 2004 - 01:39:51 EST


Hi Linus - please apply. People are hit by this oversight.

When building external modules the $PWD/.tmp_versions directory
is used. The .tmp_versions directory in the kernel tree cannot
be used because this would clutter up the kernel tree
especially when more than one external module is being build for the
same kernel tree.

This patch make sure to create $PWD/.tmp_versions, and to delete it
during make clean.
It also removes warning about 'messed with SUBDIRS', this is no longer
relevant when .tmp_versions is made outside the kernel tree.

Sam
