[PATCH v2 3/5] kbuild: Use relative path for $(objtree)

From: Michal Marek
Date: Fri May 09 2014 - 08:52:50 EST


The main Makefile sets its working directory to the object tree and
never changes it again. Therefore, we can use '.' instead of the
absolute path. The only case where we need the absolute path is when
creating the 'build' symlink in /lib/modules.
