kbuild: Don't fail if include/asm symlink exists
From: Andreas Gruenbacher <agruen@suse.de> We're having the following situation: There are user-space applications that include kernel headers directly. With a completely unconfigured /usr/src/linux tree, including most headers fails because essential files are not there: include/asm include/linux/autoconf.h include/linux/version.h So we create these files. On the other hand, we want to use /usr/src/linux as read-only source for building kernels or additional modules. Now when building a kernel with a separate output directory (O=), there is a check in the main makefile for the include/asm symlink. There is no real need for this check: if we ensure that $(objdir)/include/asm is always created as the patch does, $(srctree)/include/asm becomes irrelevant.
