[PATCH v2 0/5] kbuild: Use relative paths if possible

[Michal Marek]

Hi,

This series changes the Makefile to use relative paths for $(objtree),
always setting it to '.', and for $(srctree) setting either to '.' or
'..', when building in the source tree or a subdirectory thereof,
respectively. The goal is to make compiler messages and Oopses more
readable by avoiding the full path to the source/object directory.

Patch 2/5 is just an unrelated cleanup.

v1->v2: Fix the 'build' and 'source' symlinks in /lib/modules

Michal Marek (5):
  firmware: Simplify directory creation
  firmware: Use $(quote) in the Makefile
  kbuild: Use relative path for $(objtree)
  kbuild: Use relative path when building in the source tree
  kbuild: Use relative path when building in a subdir of the source tree
