Interesting.

"make drivers/staging/android/ " works now (finally!) and shows me the
errors when I mess up in the file  ashmem.c for example.
Furthermore, " make CCFLAGS=-Werror W=1 drivers/staging/android/    "
outputs the same errors too just more verbose. So it works completely
now, However, "make CCFLAGS=-Werror W=1 M=drivers/staging/android/
" just takes to new prompt line and does not output anything. Do you
know why?


Thanks
