Hey Fabio!

In the Outreachy FirstPatchTutorial under the 'Compiling only part of
the kernel' section there are ways to compile only some part of the
kernel.

I have tried using "make W=1 drivers/staging/axis-fifo/" and it says
'nothing to be done for'. 

Should I start with the steps to reproduce? :'(

Thank you!

Khadija
