kbuild: check arch/$(SRCARCH)/include/generated before out-of-tree build
After cross-compiling the kernel, "make mrproper" should be executed with the proper ARCH= option. Otherwise, stale objects will remain under arch/$(SRCARCH)/. One bad scenario is like this: $ make ARCH=arm defconfig all # cross-compile the kernel for arm $ make mrproper # mrproper for host-arch (i.e. x86) $ make ARCH=arm O=build_dir defconfig all If you miss ARCH= for mrproper and cross-compile the kernel with O= and ARCH= options, Kbuild will happily start to build, but may fail due to stale objects in the srctree. If $(srctree)/arch/$(SRCARCH)/include/generated/ exists, let's stop the out-of-tree build. To detect this, mrproper should clean only arch/$(SRCARCH)/include/generated/.
