Subject: include2/asm -> asm-x86 dangling link

Hi,


since the include/asm-x86 directory is gone, the include2/asm symlink
that is generated in O= builds points to a non-existing directory, which
the SUSE rpm scripts flagged up whilst trying to package it.
This affects at least 2.6.29-rc1.

~/Coding_nosov/linux > l ../linux-obj/include2/
total 4
drwxr-xr-x 2 jengelh users 16 Jan 12 01:08 .
drwxr-xr-x 21 jengelh users 4096 Jan 16 13:47 ..
lrwxrwxrwx 1 jengelh users 48 Jan 12 01:08 asm -> /home/jengelh/Coding_nosov/linux/include/asm-x86

I'd appreciate if this could be addressed in a future release.


thanks,
Jan

As soon as all have moved over to arch/$ARCH/include I will kill include2 support.
We are not there yet - but approaching.
