Masahiro Yamada e2bad142bb kbuild: unexport abs_srctree and abs_objtree
Commit 25b146c5b8 ("kbuild: allow Kbuild to start from any directory")
exported abs_srctree and abs_objtree to avoid recomputation after the
sub-make. However, this approach turned out to be fragile.

Commit 5fa94ceb79 ("kbuild: set correct abs_srctree and abs_objtree
for package builds") moved them above "ifneq ($(sub_make_done),1)",
eliminating the need for exporting them.

These are only needed in the top Makefile. If an absolute path is
required in sub-directories, you can use $(abspath ) or $(realpath )
as needed.

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.
