Masahiro Yamada 13d3d01e26 um: fix parallel building with O= option
Randy Dunlap reports UML occasionally fails to build with -j<N> and
O=<builddir> options.

    UPD     include/config/kernel.release
  make[1]: *** wait: No child processes.  Stop.
  Makefile:146: recipe for target 'sub-make' failed
  make: *** [sub-make] Error 2

The cause of the problem is the use of '$(MAKE) KBUILD_SRC=',
which recurses to the top Makefile via the $(objtree)/Makefile
generated by scripts/mkmakefile.

When you run "make -j<N> O=<builddir> ARCH=um", Make can execute
'archheaders' and 'outputmakefile' targets simultaneously because
there is no dependency between them.

If it happens,

  $(Q)$(MAKE) KBUILD_SRC= ARCH=$(HEADER_ARCH) archheaders

... tries to run $(objtree)/Makefile that is being updated.

The correct way for the recursion is

  $(Q)$(MAKE) -f $(srctree)/Makefile ARCH=$(HEADER_ARCH) archheaders

..., which does not rely on the generated Makefile.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
