Great point; android builds the kernel outside of the source dir
(`make O=/non-source/path ...`). Thanks for the patch! BTW if CrOS is
doing cool stuff with compile_commands.json; I'd like to know!
Particularly; I'm curious if it's possible to generate Ninja build
files from compile_commands.json; I do miss Doug's Kbuild caching
patches' speedup.
