Masahiro Yamada 79c95130a5 kbuild: update config_data.gz only when the content of .config is changed 
commit 46b41d5dd8019b264717978c39c43313a524d033 upstream.

If the timestamp of the .config file is updated, config_data.gz is
regenerated, then vmlinux is re-linked. This occurs even if the content
of the .config has not changed at all.

This issue was mitigated by commit 67424f61f8 ("kconfig: do not write
.config if the content is the same"); Kconfig does not update the
.config when it ends up with the identical configuration.

The issue is remaining when the .config is created by *_defconfig with
some config fragment(s) applied on top.

This is typical for powerpc and mips, where several *_defconfig targets
are constructed by using merge_config.sh.

One workaround is to have the copy of the .config. The filechk rule
updates the copy, kernel/config_data, by checking the content instead
of the timestamp.

With this commit, the second run with the same configuration avoids
the needless rebuilds.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
