[PATCH v3 10/12] kbuild: do not update config for 'make kernelrelease'

From: Masahiro Yamada
Date: Wed Jul 04 2018 - 22:42:09 EST


'make kernelrelease' depends on CONFIG_LOCALVERSION(_AUTO), but
for the same reason as install targets, we do not want to update
the configuration just for printing the kernelrelease string.

This is likely to happen when you compiled the kernel with
CROSS_COMPILE, but forget to pass it to 'make kernelrelease'.
